When I open a local copy all I can see is the content of 1 cell in the menu
bar, the work area is all blank gray. I can see the complete sheet (3 Pages)
in print preview. Most users have no problem with this sheet. I have repaired
the installation of Office 2000 and ran all updates, Same problem. It is
something on the local PC that is causing this effect. Other sheets show up
just fine. This is a very simple spred sheet with no formulas.

Maybe it's just off the screen.

Window|Arrange|Tiled
(and then resize it the way you want)

Hi

The only time I have seen this is when there are hidden rows at the bottom
of the worksheet.

Try Ctrl & Home or just Up arrow.

Being able to see the contents of a cell in the formula bar and the fact
that Print Preview works would tend to indicate this although I don't know
why other users would not share your problem.

I tried Window|Arrange|Tiled and it works for me.
Interesting thing is that it would open ok for some people and not others.
We use Office 2003 with XP OS.

Thanks for the tip!

Do your users use laptops and desktops?

There could be a difference in the display settings that's causing the trouble.
