When I create a new doc, I get a sheet that looks like graph paper

[Brian Ferguson]

When I create a new doc, I get a sheet that looks like graph paper, how can I
turn this off and have a blank page, like Word 2003?

Thanks
Brian

Brian,

View>Toolsbars>Drawing. Click the "Draw" toolbar menu item, then
"Gridlines" and uncheck "Show gridlines on screen."

 

[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Display the Drawing toolbar and choose Grid on the Draw menu. Clear the
check box for "Show gridlines on screen."

Thanks Greg and Suzanne, I should have figured that one out, but still trying
to learn where everything got moved to.

Thanks again
