How do I paste linked Excel Worksheets into Word without gridlines

[Guest]

I am trying to paste linked Excel Worksheet Objects into Word documents. In
the past (about a year ago), I was able to paste the link without turning the
gridlines option off in Excel and when I printed the Word document, the
gridlines would not print. Now every time I past an linked Excel Worksheet
Object into Word, I have to turn the gridlines off in Excel or they print in
the Word document. Can anyone help?

I am trying to paste linked Excel Worksheet Objects into Word documents. In
the past (about a year ago), I was able to paste the link without turning the

gridlines would not print. Now every time I past an linked Excel Worksheet
Object into Word, I have to turn the gridlines off in Excel or they print in
the Word document.

If the gridlines are displayed in the Excel environment, they'll print in for
objects in a Word document. That's been the way it's worked for over a decade.
If that was not happening for you, once, then perhaps it was a problem with your
printer driver, at the time.
