Default Printing/Displaying Gridlines

When a cell is filled with color the gridlines do not show for that cell on
the screen or when printed. When multiple adjacent cells are filled with
color it would be nice to be able to see the gridlines. Can the gridlines be
made to be in front of the color? Any ideas?

Use Borders

Format | Cells ... | Border tab | choose the weight, etc., of the border you
want.

Pat,

In a word - no. Fill color paints over the gridlines. You'll need to use
borders (Format - Cells - Borders) to simulate the gridlines.
