If it prints, it's not a gridline but a border. If you don't want borders,
you need to remove them. A quick way to do this is with Alt+Ctrl+U (with the insertion point in the table). If you have Word 2002 or 2003, you can choose Table Normal as your default table AutoFormat and material pasted from Excel will come in without borders. -- Suzanne S.

You specifically said, "when i print the document." As I said, if it prints,
it's a border, not a gridline, and you can't turn those off with Table | Hide Gridlines. -- Suzanne S.

Sorry to be nosy, but Han is correct, theres some problem with printing exel
tables in word they print the invisible gridlines even though they shouldnt, was looking for the answer to that as well so thankyou both. Simon "Suzanne S.

When Excel tables are pasted into Word, they often acquire borders, which do
print. You have two choices: you can remove the borders in Word, or you can change the setting in Excel that causes the borders in Word. Offhand, I don't recall exactly what the setting in Excel is, but it may be File | Page Setup | Sheet: Gridlines, or it may be Tools | Options | View: Gridlines. -- Suzanne S.
