How is the form grid turned on in VS2005 when in design mode?

No grid is viewable on the form in design mode (like I see in computer
training books for VS2003).

But the following is set to True: Tools/Options/Windows Forms
Designer/General/GridSize/ShowGrid

Is there some other setting?
Thanks, Tracey

Change the setting for Layout Mode from SnapLines to SnapToGrid in addition
to what you already have. The setting won't take effect until you restart VS
2005.
