| 13 | + <p>Template spreadsheets ship with cityEHR, as well as the example models for the Feature Demo |
| 14 | + specialty that is configured 'out of the box'. Two important options must be configured in |
| 15 | + LibreOffice to ease the modelling process.</p> |

| 18 | + <p>Turn on display of grid-lines. Here is the display of the first sheet without |
| 19 | + grid-lines.</p> |

| 23 | + <li> |
| 24 | + <p>To switch the grid-lines in, select in the settings <b>View -> Show Grid-lines</b>. The |
