Restore cell grid background

[km4hr]

I'm working on a spreadsheet created by someone else. The cell lines are not displayed. All I see is a white background. How do I restore the cell lines so that I can see them?

I guess they've selected a white Fill Colour for all the cells to make it
look nice.

Select all the cells, click on the drop down arrow on the Fill Colour icon
and choose Automatic

Regards

Trevor

Thanks Trevor and Sandy. The grid lines were off as Sandy noted.
