Table Hide/Show Gridlines

Synopsis

Table gridlines are thin gray lines displayed by default so that it is easier to see where rows and columns are in tables where borders are not displayed. When gridlines are hidden, the menu command changes to Show Gridlines. Many users find gridlines distracting while working with tables where borders will not be shown in the final product. Note that the Hide/Show Gridlines command affects an entire document, not just a single table, so a table need not be selected to use the command.
