Removing Text Box Borders in Excel 2010
The steps in this article will assume that you already have a text box in your worksheet, and that you want to remove an existing border from that text box. Step 1: Open your worksheet in Excel 2010. Step 2: Click anywhere inside the text box to make it the active window.
Step 3: Click the Format tab at the top of the window, under Drawing Tools.
Step 4: Click the Shape Outline button in the Shape Styles section of the Office ribbon, then click the No Outline option. Your text box will now be a simple box with no border color. Note that you can use this same menu if you wish to change the color of the border surrounding the text box.
