How do I get top cell alignment in excel 2003
 
Can't find 'top' as an option when I go to cell alignment in Excel 2003.
Some websites show 'top' as an option for cell alignment, but that must have
been with an earlier version of Excel. How do i get top cell alignment with
Ezxcel 2003?
thanks much

More info. Opened an Excel 2003 worksheet with Excel 2000 and was able to
change a cell alignment to 'top'. Reopened in Excel 2003 and formatting for
that particular cell showed 'top'. But, for all other cells, the 'top'
option is still not available in 2003. Am I missing something or did they
remove the 'top' cell alignment option from Excel 2003. Any Microsoft
employees read these posts?

I just looked at format|cells|alignment tab.
Then at the vertical dropdown box.

Top was at the top of the list. I did have to use the arrow and scrollbar to go
up those choices.

Could it be that simple?

Wow! Thanks. I feel kinda stupid and ticked off. Would never have expected
the scroll bar to be in anything but the top position. The horizontal scroll
bar is in the top positiion but, for some reason, the vertical is not.
Thanks again.

I think we've all done something like this. It's why many of us have flat
foreheads. Doh!
