If you mean borders - Ctrl+Alt+u

If you do mean Gridlines, which is Word 2007 appear as lines of blue dashes,
then click on the View Gridlines button in the Table section of the Layout
tab of the Table Tools.

The answer given by Peter does not solve my problem. In Word 97 I was able
to
hide table grid lines, now in Word 2007 there appears not to be this
option.
The show/hide grid lines in Word 2007 appears to be for guide lines for
typing text into a table cell. How do I hide table table grid lines in
Word
2007?
