My bet is your AA has some macros in workbooks that are in her XLStart
folder--or she has an addin loaded (tools|Addins) that provides this ability.

If you look at what's in that folder (or under tools|addins), do you find
something that doesn't exist on your pc?

If you upgrade her to xl2003, then xl will find the old XLStart and find that
workbook. (Personally, I like moving this stuff to the newer XLStart, though.)
And if it's an addin, you should be able to find it and turn it on once more.

If you upgrade by giving her a new/different pc, you'll have to find those files
and put it on the new pc (in the correct location) and maybe turn it on
(tools|addins)--depends on what you find and how you're upgrading.

The AA where I works swears up-and-down that she is able, using Excel
2000, to assign Excel function to the function keys (F1-F12). I would
like to move her to Excel 2003, but I cannot find this capability.

Two questions:
1) Is she correct? That is, does this functionality exist with earlier
versions of Excel?
2) Is it possible to assign Excel functions to Function keys in Excel
2003?

Thank you.
