Dave, Thank you so much for responding. I also found your earlier post for
Cassandra on same issue and somehow just opening the Window/Arrange worked -
wierd. I also called Microsoft. They explained that I had accidentally
minimized the document within the application and that double-clicking the
blue title bar or the restore button of the *document* (not the application
blue bar) restores it. I see that this happens to people fairly frequently
so I suggested they add it under help for the sheet tab/hor scroll bar
topics. Thanks so much!

Do you see a blue titlebar at the top of the worksheet--not the application's
titlebar?

If you don't, then try:
window|arrange|tiled
Now you should be able to see that worksheet's titlebar.

Double click on that blue titlebar.

Unable to move between sheets as the sheet tabs and the horizontal scrollbar
have disappeared. The document is only showing one sheet and this appears
like a window that I can move around within the Excel background. Usually,
the xls document name appears at the top left of the page when I open, but
the document name is at the top of the document with the "window." The page
goes on forever - endless. I have worked through help. View - show sheet
tabs is checked, there is no way to uncollapse the horizontal scrollbar as
the scrollbar isn't accessible. Please please help!
