If you mean that the lines appear when the document is downloaded from
the server to someone's copy of Word, that's "as designed". The
setting to show or hide gridlines isn't stored in the document file,
it's a per-machine setting. Whatever the user has set for their copy
of Word, that's what they'll see.

You can fake it by going into Format Borders & Shading and setting
the table border color to white. That will obscure the gridlines if
they're turned on (assuming the user hasn't set their background color
to something other than white).
