Style 'Percent' not found error message.
I have a freshly installed copy of MS Excel 2003 on a new laptop. When I
select the "%" symbol from the formatting menu toolbar, I get an error message: Style 'Percent' not found. Same thing for the "$" symbol; I get: Style 'Currency' not found. I have had this problem before and just lived with it, but I would like to understand the cause and the cure. Thanks, DanG |

Style 'Percent' not found error message.
Start a new workbook.
Check to see if each of those styles works in that new workbook (styles live in workbooks--not the application). If they're there, you can activate the problem workbook format|style|Merge and "steal" the currency and percent styles from that new workbook. You may want to remember this. If you have other workbooks that have lost these styles, you may want to do it again (and again and again...). DanG wrote: I have a freshly installed copy of MS Excel 2003 on a new laptop.
