Re: blocks of cells have no borders (old openoffice user)

I've been using OO for about 10 years. The first 8 was using it in 
windows, and the last 2 using it in Ubuntu. Now I'm in LibreOffice. When 
I switched to Ubuntu, files I had saved in OO calc in windows when 
opened in Ubuntu had cells with data with a white background (fill) 
instead of showing the cell borders. They did not have a background 
color (fill) selected in Windows. I simply selected the group of  white 
cells (sometimes complete columns), right clicked, selected format, then 
background, and then changed the fill from white to no fill. Everything 
was fine then. I've not used OO or LibreOffice in Windows since I 
switched to Ubuntu so I don't know what would happen if I opened a 
document I had created in Ubuntu in Windows. Maybe this will solve your 
problem.
