You have to have data on your sheet. Look in Tools/Options/View Tab. At
the bottom you have window options. Make sure gridlines is checked. It
will still print the gridlines if you set the Print properties to print
gridlines but you won't see them in your edit view.

I tried to format a new spreadsheet to print gridlines on all cells with
page
setup. When I then click on Print Preview, gridlines do not show.
