Since "Unless an explicit Return is used, the value returned by For is Null", use Print to generate an output.
Also, Partition throws away the last line unless it is a full line. Pad with two empty strings before Partition to obviate this problem.
Using a fixed ItemSize will make all the tables the same width.
For[x = 65, x < 91, x++, n0 = Join[
Names[StringJoin["System`", FromCharacterCode[x], "*"]],
{"", ""}];
Print[Grid[Partition[n0, 3], Alignment -> Left,
Frame -> All, ItemSize -> 10]]]

Consider this v7 code which works as intended:
x = 65;
n0 = Names[
StringJoin[
"System`", FromCharacterCode[x], "*"
]
];
Grid[Partition[n0, 3], Alignment -> Left, Frame -> All]
And now consider this code which allows far more versatility, for
consecutive multiple outputs using the For[] function. BUT for some
reason it doesn't appear to work at all! Does anyone know why? Can it
be "fixed" as intended?
For[x = 65, x < 91, x++,
n0 = Names[
StringJoin[
"System`", FromCharacterCode[x], "*"
]
];
Grid[Partition[n0, 3], Alignment -> Left, Frame -> All]
]
