Lost my Grid Lines in Lables

Sorry to ask such a stupid question - but on Office 2000, when I select
ENVELOPES & LABELS and click PRINT-FULL PAGE OF SAME LABEL, then NEW DOCUMENT
my grid lines or table (not sure of the correct term) does not show up.

It just a blank document, I can still TAB form one to the other, but there
is not sight of where one begins and the other ends - in Office 2003 I see
the lines that outline the labels - do I have something wrong - any help...

Thanks JoAnn - I knew it was something stupid that I was missing, but this of
course leads into the next question - How can I have it so that the default
is "Show Gridlines" rather than selecting that each time :(

Thats what I had thought - clicking on it will default to that the next time
I start up - but it doesn't, the next time I start again it shows "Show
Gridlines" therefore I need to select again....

No biggie just found it weird -

The following line in both an autoopen and an autonew macro in normal.dot
will force the setting for each document.

ActiveWindow.View.TableGridlines = True
