Is there anyway I can turn off the gridlines permanently instead of having to always go to Tools->Options->View and uncheck the Gridlines everytime I launch Excel? I'm using Excel 2002. Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
  • Create a new Excel document and off the grid lines
    ...
  • Save the file as book.xlt in the excel system startup folderFile > Save as
    Browse to the Excel system startup folder
    File name : book
    Save as : Template (*.xlt)
Normally Excel Start up folder is there ........
<Username>\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART\PERSONAL.XLS

You will probably need to create a new workbook called Sheet.xlt too so that wehn you add sheets these also have the gridlines turned off.
