Default Word 2007 page border

I just upgraded from 2003 Word to 2007 Word. First, I had a label template
in 2003 had border lines around the labels so it was easy to see where each
label was. When I opened it in 2007 Word, those borders were missing.
Unfortunately, I did something that added them. Well, it was great for the
label template, but I don't want it in my normal word document. And it's
there! So, how do I turn that off?
It's a thin line outlining the page body of text and the Header and Footer.
I can't seem to find the command that I used to turn it on - it's not obvious.
Any suggestions?

What you enabled was "text boundaries," which will certainly do the job but
are not what you were looking for. I actually like to display text
boundaries, but you can turn them off at Office Button | Word Options |
Advanced | Show document content. What you want to display is table
gridlines, and that toggle button is View Gridlines, in the first (Table)
group on the contextual Table Tools | Layout tab.
