| HELP!
| I used to be able to use my mouse to highlight a range of cells in Excel and
| have the sum, min, max, avg, etc displayed at the bottom of the spreadsheet
| in what looked like a gray toolbar that was below the tabs of the spreadsheet
| and contained the word 'Ready'. Somehow I lost the ability to do this. Is
| this an Option, Toolbar, or what that I need to turn on to activate this
| feature again?
