** Description changed:

- The original bug report was about a MS Excel compatibility feature that
- just hasn't been added to official openoffice.org yet.
- 
- There is a real bug here however in that it does not show font colors
- for certain cells properly and this happens even in official
- openoffice.org 3.0.0.

  In hardy with openoffice.org 2.4.0, there is a problem with the
  spreadsheet where some sheets don't show grid lines.  This is an
  existing spreadsheet that I created years ago and use with each new
  version of openoffice.
  
  It works ok with any new spreadsheet I create, but only is a problem
  with the old one.  Therefore, I cannot repeat tell you how to reproduce
  this bug.
  
  This may be similar to a bug reported on gentoo:
  
  http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219351
  
  but, in my case, the work around of changing the background color to
  white makes no difference.
  
  I downloaded the openoffice.org-2.4 binary from openoffice.org website
  and tried it and the grid lines worked fine on my old spreadsheet.
  
  For me, the only work around I could find is to select the whole sheet
  (Cntl-A), then go to menu > format > cells > borders > select all cells
  bordered and set border color to light grey.  This at least looks like a
  grid when the sheet is displayed.
