Default Spell Check

In Excel 2000
When I run spell check in Excel, it finds the misspelled words; it just
doesn't move the spell check dialog box around so I can see where in the
spreadsheet the misspelled is located. In Word the dialog box moves so you
can view the location of the misspelled word. Is there a setting to change
so I can locate my misspelled word in the spreadsheet?

Thank you, Karen

I don't think so--and it hasn't changed in xl2003, either.

But if you can see the Namebox (to the left of the formulabar), you'll see the
cell that contains that misspelled word.

It may help a bit.
