It's been there since at least 5.0

As to why ... I can't (don't) create and/or design any form without using
that icon.

You need to toggle it constantly to see the display mode of the form you're
designing.

It's one of the *rare* cases where I seem to be on the same track as
Redmond.

It has been there for several versions.

Why there??? Good question but no answer I could find or think of.

One would surmise it should be under the View or Format category.

I use the following code to CLEAR gridlines. It resides in personal.xls
and
is attached to a custom toolbar button.

Sub ClearGridlines()
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = False
End Sub

If you want a toggle you could use:
Sub ToggleGridlines()
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = not ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines
End Sub

Just upgraded to Excel 2003 and can't find the gridline command to
drag
to my
toolbar - can anyone point me in the right direction. It's buried in
the
toolsoptionsview menu. The older version let me put the command on
my
toolbar.
