better search: "make worksheet visible"
How come, I enter "make worksheet visible" and I can't find any relevant
information?? It should be pretty straightforward to figure out what I am asking about and how to do it. Moreover, if I put the words in quotes, many search engines assume I look for the phrase, not the words separately. So how come I still get many irrelevant results? Either the search doesn't work right, or the information it is searching is not well organized and complete, or both. |
