That's the default status for me (also xl2003).

If you start a new workbook, add some test data, then do data|subtotals, do you
see the outlining symbols?

Maybe someone turned them off for the workbooks that you're using.

all the time without having to go to tools|options|view tab|check Outline
symbols? I am using excel 2003

subtotal lines are appearing on the spreadsheet but the levels are not
appearing to the left of the number lines. How do I see the levels so I can
use them?
