cause I'm designing a report which will have horizontal/vertical lines
on it and drawing lines on a screen which has lines already on it can
be confusing at times so I just wanted to get rid of the inch markers.

Well you could always make the lines in your report a different color
during design phase. I personally have never had the lines I draw on
my reports give me issues such as you describe but being as dyslexic
as I am I could see (no pun intended) how this might be an issue for
some people. As I said in the first response, I don't know of a way
top turn of the solid grid so to speak. Good luck with yoru project!

Drop down the report design view menu and uncheck the 'Grid' option.
