First: No need to shout (typing in all CAPS means you're shouting)

Second:
Setting gridlines in Page Setup only impacts printed sheets.

Try this:

From the Excel main menu:
<tools<options<view tab
Check: Gridlines......Click [OK]

If that doesn't work, you probably have a background pattern set on the sheet.
So...try this....

Select a range of cells
<format<cells<patterns tab
Click on "No color"
Click on "Pattern" check:Automatic
.......Click [OK]

Does that help?
