I have created a survey in an Excel file. Some of my cells have a light blue border around them and I do not know why. I am trying to create column graphs but the only option Excel gives me is clustered bar. I do not know if the blue border is causing this. How can I remove the blue borders?

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
If you mean the sheet grip there is an option in the Home > Font (lower centre) for adjusting cell outlines. if its not that then there could be a conditional format applied via a rule.

Cells and charts aren't linked

The clustering sounds like a data selection issue,

It seemed that some cells had borders and others did not. So I deleted cell borders for the whole table and applied the style and now it all looks the same. Thanks!

If thats a TABLE, then I think it is part of the THEME, I didn't see the image the other day
