When I use gridlines in printing, the cells with background colour change
lost the gridlines. How can I resume the gridlines?

Thanks,

Scott

Dear Scott,
when you apply colour to a group of cells the gridlines get disappear.Thats
what i understand your prob is.For that after filling colours in the group of
cells go to borders and click on all borders.All your cells with different
colour will show up.

In that situation, you'll have to use borders, rather than gridlines.

Border is different from gridline. When I increase any column or row, I
have to format the border again but gridline is automatic.

As was pointed out to you.

Coloring the cells wipe out the gridlines.

You cannot get them back without setting background to "no color" or
"automatic".

Gord,

Thanks for your pointing out it is shortcoming of Excel since the first
version. Is it impossible to address this issue? I have discussed with the
users who all have this concern and it seems Microsoft did not receive it so
far and never touch this area for improvement. Where can I submit it to
Excel development of Microsoft?

Regards,

Scott

I do not have an address/URL for MS Excel Developers.

Maybe someone else can point you to something.

While you're waiting for the Developers to make the upgrade, use this macro
whenever you need to add borders to colored cells.

Sub add_borders()
Dim r As Range
For Each r In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
If r.Interior.ColorIndex < xlNone Then
r.BorderAround , Weight:=xlThin
End If
Next r
End Sub
