text boxes disappear off screen
 

hi,

i have set up a new workbook containing various text boxes, all of which
appear fine on my pc, and on of most of my colleagues' pc's.

but on some of my other colleagues' pc's - some of the text boxes only
become visible once they have clicked on the area containing the boxes, or,
in some cases, not at all.

they do appear on all printouts however.

i'm at a loss as to why/how this is happening!

cheers,

mark

Just a silly wild guess...

I would guess that it has more to do with the video driver/video settings or
even memory available.

Any chance you can fiddle with any of those?

thanks dave,

unfortunately it isn't the solution in this case. it's an absolute mystery.
some of my colleagues log on one day, and can see all the text boxes and
imported logos (pictures) then the next day they'll disappear again.

it has been suggested that it is a "profile setup" issue which we are
investigating.

but i'm still frustrated and scratching my head for answers.........!!??

cheers,

mark.
