Tables behaving badly

Ken,

The idea of making the gridlines the same color as the background
sounds good, but when I have a list item selected, you can see the
gridlines for that selection. I wonder if there is a way to make the
hilight lay on top to cover the lines? If so, the solution would be
perfect.
