Hi,
I have a basic question. I'm looking at a spreadsheet created by someone else that has gray areas running along the column letters and the row numbers. I can click plus and minus signs to look at hidden rows and columns there. What are these called? Thanks! -- -Kim |

If those gray areas have small numbers in boxes in the upper left (eg
[1][2][3]), then that's the Outline area. Clicking those numbers expands/collapses the outline, displaying/hiding rows or columns. Post back with more questions. Does that help? *********** Regards, Ron XL2002, WinXP "Kim" wrote: Hi, I have a basic question.

And you can create them a couple of ways...
#1. Data|Subtotals #2. Data|Group and Outline And you can turn them off by undoing each of those or you can hide them: tools|options|view tab|uncheck outline symbols Kim wrote: Yes, that's helpful.
