Default grid lines

How do I get excel to always print grid lines.

Before I ask dozens of other questions, is there a link to the basics on
getting started on "SIMPLE" excel stuff, i.e what to do to set up before you
start.

Cheers Steve.

File-Page Setup-Sheet" and tick the "Gridlines" box.

I'd acquaint myself with the Help function.

Found that and have used HELP!!! to find many things.

My question - How do I get excel to "always" print grid lines.

.....was asking if I can set-up excel to always print gridlines "unless" I
choose NOT to print them.

Many thanks Steve

You could create a workbook that has the settings you want. Then save
this workbook as a template for all new workbooks.

If that's what you want to do:
Start a new workbook.
change all the settings that you want--including the gridlines under
File|Page setup
for all the sheets in that workbook.

Also, modify anything else you want as a standard--header/footers, page
orientation, number of worksheets in that workbook???

Now save it as a template in your XLStart folder as book.xlt

Then when you click on that New icon, the new workbook will inherit all those
settings.

=====
If you create another file named sheet.xlt (in the same XLStart location), then
every new worksheet added will inherit the settings from this template.

I set up book.xlt the way I wanted it (one sheet only) and then used windows
explorer to copy it to sheet.xlt. Then they would be identical. (Seemed like
less work, too.)
