My gridlines in Excel wont show when I print?

I've already gone to page setup & clicked on show gridlines. If i preview the page, they're there. When I print, they're not! Last time I printed this particular spreadsheet, they showed...what gives?

    You must highlight the cells you want to add borders to and then right click and select format cells I believe it is, then select the borders tab and you'll figure it out from there.

    In print preview there's a page setup tab with show gridlines.

    Default is don't show so ticking that will show gridlines.

    I would assume you need to make a border around your cells. I'm not experienced with excel, but try creating borders around your cells and printing that way.

    I haven't used it in a while but I think there's something in the options that says print gridlines.

    Very Funny...

    Gridlines and Cell borders are quite different.

    You can't print any gridline of any software on the paper.

    Gridlines are used as a measurment and idea of layouts only.

    To have gridlines like print on the paper, you have to choose Cell Border.

    for this,

    select cells you want to put border,

    Press Ctrl+1 takes u to "Format Cells"

    Goto Border tab

    Select Style, Preset and Borders then click on ok.

    thats it.
