Possibly this is the grid. Display the Drawing toolbar, choose Draw | Grid,
and clear the check box for "Show gridlines on screen."

I like PRINT LAYOUT VIEW best as this allows me to move margins, tabs etc
while I type. However for some unknown reason I have started to get
horizontal lines across the page - which I do not want. I know I never
used
to get them before as the other layout views are alien to me, do not allow
me
to get side margins so I know I must always have used Print Layout View.
Any
ideas how I get rid of them - most annoying. Thanks to anyone who can
help.
