Can't get grid lines

I can't get the grid lines in my worksheet even when I check it on the
options. What am I doing wrong?

Hi

Maybe you have a white background on the cells?

If you select a single cell, right click on it and gor to Format Cells. . .
.. on the Patterns tab, make sure that No Color is selected.

Can't get the gridlines, where?
See Gridlines and Borders
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/gridline.htm

Printing of gridlines: Tools, Options, View,
Gridlines (checked), color: automatic
Also printing in draft mode or low resolution may prevent printing of gridlines.

Display of gridlines: File, Page Setup, Sheet
Gridlines (checked)

Color in a cell will wipe out gridlines as will cell borders.

You could use cell borders then you will get your lines.
