What do you mean by gridlines? The lines in a list object? In that case you must experiment with border settings

by gridlines i mean the default lines around each cell in a list or crosstab report output (pdf or html) even when no borders are drawn.

Then you have to look at the bordersettings....

Select the list column(s) to change.

In the properties pane, select Border.

Change the color to match your background color.

Select which grid lines you want to hide (top, bottom, etc).

Click OK.

thanks drehnod for your reply. Never thought of it that way..


Also just wanted to let ReportNet Addict know that I tried with the help quite extensively,  looking for gridline settings before posting this question. Sometimes even simple solutions elude novices like me.

Thanks much for your help guys.

SOLVED
