If "text boundaries" (Tools | Options | View) aren't what you want, try
Table | Gridlines. Note that the latter displays table gridlines in all
views; text boundaries are displayed only in Print Layout view, but this
option will show cell boundaries in a table even if table gridlines are not
displayed.
