I have to agree with Sbrocket.

You need two lines of code. Four lines if you want to use a custom color for the line separator and border.

// For cell background
 cell.backgroundColor=[UIColor lightGrayColor];

// For tableView line separator (assuming IBOutlet UITableView* table;)
self.table.separatorColor=[UIColor redColor];

//If you need a custom color (I assume you do), then...
 cell.backgroundColor=[UIColor colorWithRed:(CGFloat)red green:(CGFloat)green blue:(CGFloat)blue alpha:(CGFloat)alpha];

Drop in the RGB value for any color you like for both the cell background and line separator.

Couldn't be easier.
