Hi Kevs,
When you add a fill color to a cell, the border will disappear.
Select the Cell(s), the use the Format menu Format > Cells
It's in there that you can control the border of the cells that have fills.

thanks Jim, couple of points:
The borders offered, even the thinnest one seems to be a lot darker than the simple grid border.
I guess I would have to write that into the Macro that I wrote filling the row.
Finally, it only seems to border the row, and the column lines are still not showing. thanks!

Also, seems you have to do one Row at a time? If select 50 rows and want to border them all does not seems to work?

Should be no problem - just make sure you select both Outline as well as
Inside to apply the border to all four sides of each of the cells. If you
use the default border weight and use the 25% Gray border color it should be
virtually indistinguishable from the border color of the unfilled cells (in
2004).

Exellent Bob, thanks.
Actually, the 25% is much darker than the very light grey, not for you?
