Columns Problem?
 

I have made use of most all of the columns available thru IV, minus aprox 10
cols.

with minus 5 cols, at one time was able to expand 1 column size (to trick
xl? column space available so I can: cut / past / insert columns).

Error getting: cannot shift objects off sheet.
I now have difficulty inserting, etc. with 15 cols expanded / cannot reduce
size of columns. (turning into a mess)

is it some kind of terminator problem where number vs size of columns, can
be fixed? thanks.

Make sure there isn't something in the last column (data, specific
formatting, etc). The easiest way is probably to select column IV, delete it
(not just clear contents) and then insert a column where desired.

One approach is to upgrade to Excel 2007 which has many more columns
available.

Another approach is to consider redesign of your spreadsheet so that you
are not always bumping into column IV. Put some of your information on a
second or third worksheet in the same workbook.

I try to keep my worksheets completely visible in one window or at least
only need to scroll down.
