Default how do I create a lined page with no text

I can insert a one column table. I get a box that asks me for the number of
columns and number of row. I made it 1 column and 50 rows. There is nothing
about row height. I made the fixed column with "Auto". The other options
were "Autofit to Contents" and "Autofit to Window". I do not know how to
clear the cell margins or remove the Border via format.

By playing around I was able to get something. But I would like to
havefollowed your instructions to have more control.

On the View menu, click Header and Footer. With the insertion point in
the header, insert a text box, drag it to fit the page. Remove the
border (via Format | Borders and Shading). Insert a one-column table.
Clear the cell margins. Specify the desired row height and then add as
many rows as needed to fill the page. Add top and bottom borders, but
no vertical ones. Close the header/footer area.

Since the table is inside the header, it will be visible on each page
added automatically by Word.

To type on the lines, specify a fixed value of line spacing for your
text.

Note: With the most recent version(s) of Word, you may be able to
insert a table directly into the header (without putting it in a text
box).
