Maybe it's the pagebreak line.

Tools|Options|view tab|uncheck Page Breaks.

They'll come back if you print or print preview, though.

I'm using Microsoft Excel 2003. There is a dashed vertical line to the
right of columns 22 and 86. It has the same color as the grid, and
cuts through merged cells. No amount of fiddling with the borders of
the columns or the cells gets rid of it. Can someone point me to
documentation that explains what it is? Thanks.
