default gridlines style
I need to find out how to change the gridline style in Excel. The system I
am on has black dotted gridlines (like the dotted style borders) and I would like to change them to the solid, light grey gridlines. I am in Excel 2003. |

Thanks for the info. I am familiar with saving templates in xlstart but, i
do not have the option of changing the gridlines from the dotted lines to the lighter colored solid line. I know what you are talking about regarding tools/options/view/gridlines/colors. And, from there, I am able to change the dotted lines to any color on the palette. I still do not know how to change the line style of the gridlines. The reason I want to get this changed is because it gets hard on my eyes staring at these tiny dotted lines.
