excel column headers read right to left
 
Hi, I have been importing exporting data from access to excel and I think
during this process it changed the look of my excel pages. The column
headings across the top read Z to A and the row headings are on the right
hand side of the page (not the left like usual). The sheet tabs at the bottom
are also on the right and the scrollbars are on the left of the screen also.
If I open a new excel doc it is always like this however if I open an
existing one it is in the usual format. It is like it might be for a
lefthander. I am not sure how to fix this please help. I am using excel 2002.

uncheck right to left.

Something so simple. you are a legend. Thanks. I searched these options but
obviously without knowing what to look for to fix my problem. Now I will
know. I wonder why it did this in the first place. weird. Thanks again.
