Summary:
There are some BackColor property values for the Grid custom control
that will cause the cell borders to become invisible. The borders of
Grid cells are light gray. If you set the BackColor of the Grid to
light gray, you will not be able to distinguish the borders from the
background of the Grid control.
This information applies to the Grid custom control supplied with
Microsoft Professional Toolkit for Microsoft Visual Basic programming
system version 1.0 for Windows.

Workaround
----------
To work around this behavior, you should change the Grid default
BackColor(&H00000000&) to a color other than light gray.
Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------
There are two ways to lose the outline of Grid cell borders:
- Specifically set the Grid BackColor property at design time or
run time to light gray (&H00C0C0C0&).
- Set the Windows Background color to gray from the Windows Control
Panel. Note that users of your application may encounter this
behavior simply by customizing the window colors from the Windows
Control Panel.
