I have recently upgraded from Excel 2000 to Excel 2003. In previous versions
i have been able to press the F2 button to edit the text or figures directly
in the cell. Since upgrading, i have not been able to do this but have had
to use the double-click method, which i find slow.

Can anyone tell me why i can no longer use the F2 button? For your
information, i have tried turning the 'Edit Directly In Cell' on and off
under options, but this does not make any difference.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Many thanks
