"Undo" in Excel 2007
Hi everyone.
Im not very familiar with MS Office 2007 (for last few years I used to use an OpenOffice). I have a question regarding "undo" option in Excel. When I work with few worksheets simultaneously it behaves a little bit strange to me. Let say I have worksheet_1 and worksheet_2. I fill out some data in worksheet_1 first. Then I move to worksheet_2, do some job, and after that go to worksheet_1 again. Now I want to undo the operations done to worksheet_1 only. Unfortunately "undo" will affect the worksheet_2 as well. Is there a way to separate "undo" and make it independent for every worksheet opened? Thanks in advance, gordom |

"Undo" in Excel 2007
Nope. Excel's undo is application wide.
But you'll find that MSWord works on a document level. So you've got that to look forward to. gordom wrote: Hi everyone.

"Undo" in Excel 2007
This seems like a design choice made by the developers. I'm not sure I'd
classify it as being behind (or ahead) of a different design choice. Maybe the developers thought that since lots of workbooks were linked to one another (and could be edited in the same instance) that it made more sense to be an application wide feature. gordom wrote: W dniu 2009-03-04 13:56, Dave Peterson pisze: Nope.
