thanks Ron but that doesn't help either.

My worksheet looks like this -

top row - the green excel symbol on the left then name of the file and then
minimize, restore and maximize buttons on the extreme right

second row - I have the name box on the left and the formula box next to it.

third row onwards - I have the worksheet available. So if open an earlier
file I see all my data. If i open an attachment I see the data.

the right click doesnt help much.

any suggestions??

thx

Select: customize
Select: toolbars tab
Check: Worksheet Menu Bar
Click the [Close] button

Does that help?

Hi,

I accidently unchecked an option because of which now when I open excel all
i see is the name box and the formula box and the worksheet. I do not see the
menu nor the toolbar options. I have tried the Alt+T C but it doesnot work.
How do I make the toolbars and the menu show up again.

thx
