Show or hide gridlines on a worksheet

If you're familiar with using gridlines in Excel, you might be wondering how to show or hide them in an Excel Online worksheet. Although the web app shows or hides existing gridlines, it doesn't yet provide a way to show or hide them.

You can either show or hide gridlines on the worksheet from Excel desktop application.
