Hello Steve,

Never heard of this problem.
How does she highlight the entire sheet?
Does it happen with all workbooks are just a few or one?
What happens if she goes to... Tools | Options | View (tab) and cycles thru
checking/unchecking "Row & column headers"?
Check the Personal.xls file to see if there is code in there.
Try unchecking all of the add-Ins in... Tools | Add-ins.

And of course...Patient..."It hurts when I do this doctor."
Doctor... "Don't do that."
Actually it is seldom necessary to select the entire worksheet.
Good luck with it.

Hi everyone, I wonder if I can pick all of your brains.

I have an Excel user who is experiencing problems with Excel 2000 sp3.
When the user highlights the entire worksheet, the column and row names
disappear.
This also affects autofilter, in that she does not know which columns are
being shown.
I have uninstalled office 2000 sp3 and installed all updates from the MS
update site.
I have deleted all of her excel templates and copied new ones from another
computer which works.
I have reset all of the user's Windows colours to default and set all of the
excel colours to default as well.
I have completely removed Office 2000 and removed all entries to Microsoft
from her machine, then installed Office again.
I have also tried updating the mouse driver (as suggested in a discussion
group).
I have deleted all XLB files, but the problem persists.

Any suggestions would be greatfully received.

Many thanks.
