I created a form in Excel 2003 and changed the borders of unnessessary cells
to white so the user isn't distracted. I've done this many times with no
problem. This time though for some reason any borders that have been set to
white, print out as black lines.

1. Borders are formatted by the user.
2. Gridlines are formatted by Excel. You can choose to print gridlines under
File--Page setup, Sheet tab.

Given those truths, it sounds to me like you have turned ON printing of
gridlines. It also seems that you should remove all borders (to get rid of
the white ones), put borders ONLY around the cells you want them, and then
turn off viewing of gridlines so you don't see them (hence, the borders look
"white").

By using white borders or white cell fill to hide gridlines, you can
unnecessarily bloat the workbook.
