Hi :) A normal spreadsheet shows thin grey lines between cells.
There is a "Page Settings" setting for including those thin grey lines on printouts, the option is labeled "gridlines" and i think that is set by default usually although i could be wrong. It is difficult to know what to call those thin grey lines because as you pointed out "borders" means something quite specific but so does the word gridlines. Anyway it is those lines that vanish in most spreadsheet programs when a few adjacent cells are given a background colour. I don't think there is a way to get them back except by using borders and then carefully setting the the borders weight and width to be the same as the thin grey lines.

Personally, I just did a quick test (opened calc, added a border to a cell, then filled it with a background color) and the border was still there... so is it some special kind of situation?
