4. Sheet Option
It is also a printing option that can show or hide the gridlines, while printing and heading options are used to give headings to the rows and columns.

Headings - Show row and column headings. Row headings are the row numbers on the side of the sheet that range from 1 to 1,048,576. Column headings are the letters that appear above the columns on a sheet that range from A to XFD. This is also found on the View tab of an Excel Workbook.
