Q1
You could grey out all of the cells other that the information area. You would need to manage the changing of that area, adding/removing information, which can be done using conditional formatting (as long as the are in question is not huge). Q2 Excel 2003 has a facility to colour code the tabs, right-click on the tab and select Tab Color ... from the menu. -- __________________________________ HTH Bob "stew" wrote in message ...

Stew,
You can hide all the columns beyond your area, and all the rows also. You can also set the Scroll Range, which you do for the sheet in the Visual Basic Environment. I'm not sure if this is a persistent setting, which means that it might not stay set when the workbook is reopened. In that case, you have to set it with Workbook_Open code, which will run each time the workbook is opened. Macros must have been enabled. -- Regards from Virginia Beach, Earl Kiosterud www.smokeylake.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "stew" wrote in message ...

Stew,
Hide the unused rows (those beyond your stuff), and columns. See if that is suitable. It usually is, and requires no code. Post back if you need instructions on doing that. -- Regards from Virginia Beach, Earl Kiosterud www.smokeylake.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- "stew" wrote in message ...
