EXCEL to SLDDWG with no grid lines...

EXCEL to SLDDWG with no grid lines...

(OP)
I have a portion of a spreadsheet with some calculations that I want to copy/paste to my drawing. Works fine, but it shows up with grid lines. How can I make them go away?

Double-click the grid on the SW drawing > Right-click a cell and pick "Format Cells" > Border TAB > Choose "None" for the presets.

There's no border on the cells. I think it has to do with the sheet formating in EXCEL...

Gotcha, then turn off the gridlines in Excel before pasting into SW.  In Excel: Tools > Options > Gridlines (lower left).

Open the spreadsheet in Excel, then go to Tools > Options > View and deselect Gridlines.
