i recently installed an office 2007 update, and now i cannot paste pictures
from excel worksheets without gridlines and comment boxes showing. In the
past, gridlines would show in excel, but when you pasted to a word document
they would go away along with red comment box markers. Now i can't get them
to go.
thanks

The use of the word "picture" suggest you are using the command sequence:
Home | Paste | As Picture |Coy as Picture to make a snapshot of part of a
worksheet.

It the dialog that follows this you select either (a) As on Screen or (b)
As Printed.
The first will capture gridlines and comment markers, the second will not.
This was the same in earlier Excel versions
Let us know if this fixes your problem
best wishes
