Default Can I make the grid lines darker on my document?

I'm trying to make a chart and the lines are not dark enough to appear. I
need both vertical and horizontal delineation, so the autoformats aren't
great for me. I tried shading every other horizontal line and showing the
grid lines, but the grid lines are just too light to see. I'd appreciate any
help. Thanks. I am a new user. Obviously.

Use borders instead of gridlnes - highlight the area that you want
this to apply to, then Format | Cells | Border tab. Here you can
select the thickness and style of the lines you want, as well as the
colour, then click Outline and Inside to apply them.

Hope this helps.
