    strange horizontal line showing accross several columns

    Between two rows, and for the span of about 16 or so columns there is a line
    that I can't get rid of.

    Its not a "Border" settings, Its not a drawing line, its not a page break
    line. I can't select it. If I select the entire two rows flanking this line
    and delete the two rows, the line simply shifts up. So it this line was
    between rows 70 and 71, it would then appear between rows 69 and 70.
    Its not anything in the footer or header either!!

    It prints when I print the page.

    Any idea what on earth this could be?

    Thanks

    Perhaps an object ?
    Try press F5 > Special > Objects > Ok
    Then press "Delete" ..

    i know you said it not a border but have you considered that line could be
    the bottom border of the upper row or it could be the top border of the lower
    row

    I have the exact same problem and I cannot figure out how to solve it.
    I have tried getting rid of all borders around the cells, rows, columns, and it does nothing. You cannot delete the rows or columns and get rid of it. I have looked for hidden formulas, hidden rows, nothing!

    And you looked for flattened objects, too?

    Edit|goto|Special|objects

    Do those lines get selected?

    If you know you don't have any objects (pictures/buttons/checkboxes/etc) on the
    worksheet, you can select them all and hit the delete key.
