Problem editing Excel sheet in PowerPoint

[SRS]

Greetings.

I'm sure this is an easy fix...and/or I'm just doing something stupid, but
it's driving me nutso.

I made a very simple PowerPoint presentation that includes two slides made
up of a small Excel spreadsheet each.

Everything worked like it's supposed to. However, I needed to go back into
the Excel sheet and simply edit one of the cells. So, while in the
PowerPoint presentation, I double-clicked on the Excel sheet in the slide
which brought up the Excel sheet. Made the change to the cell and then
clicked out of it.

HOWEVER, now the Excel sheet has gridlines (which I don't want) and I can't
figure out how to go in and edit the Excel spreadsheet WITHOUT having the
Excel gridlines appear in the slide once I make the edit.

Any suggestions??

Thank you!

Nevermind...found it. With the Excel spread sheet open while editing, went
to Tools>Options>un-checked the "gridlines" box in the "View" tab. Duh.
