Hi All,

Don't know if this is a bug in Excel, or something I'm doing wrong?
Usually when using autofilter the number of records is shown in the status
bar (i.e. "2 of 500 records shown"), but on this particular sheet, it doesn't
show up.
It seems to work on some sheets and not others.

Any ideas why?

I'm running excel 2002 SP3 on WinXP SP1.

Thanks in advance,

Alex

Even after you upgrade, you'll still be stuck. (It still applies through
xl2003, at least.)
