I am trying to copy an Excel spreadsheet into a Powerpoint presentation. I have no gridlines or borders in the Excel document. When I view it in Powerpoint, there are gridlines. How can I get rid of the lines in Powerpoint?

Thanks.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.

The gridlines show up when designing the slide, but they shouldn't be visible when you view the slide as you would in a presentation.

Give it a try...

Have you turned Grid Lines off in 'Tools >Options >View and removed the tick from Grid Lines. This removes them in all sheets I have pasted to Powerpoint.

However if you have used 'Paste Special', 'Paste Link' then if you turn them back on in Excel then they will re-appear in Powerpoint.

Just turning off in Page set up, is not appropriate for your task.
