Excel Data drop down menu
I'm not sure if I am in the right place, but if someone
can help me I would appreciate it. In my Microsoft Office 2003, New Perspectives Book it tells me to click DATA on the menu bar and point to LIST. My drop down menu does not show a list so I skipped this part, but later on in the same lesson it request more info from this LIST. I am using Windows XP if that makes any difference. Thanks Donna |

If you don't see the Arrange command, you probably have short menus
enabled. To change this -- Choose ToolsCustomize Select the Options tab Add a check mark to 'Always show full menus' Click OK Or, to use short menus, and see commands that haven't been used recently, open a menu, and point to the arrow at the bottom of the menu.

Debra thank you for your suggestion, but I've done that
and it didn't help. Any other suggestions? -----Original Message----- If you don't see the Arrange command, you probably have short menus enabled.

The List command is new in Excel 2003. If you have an earlier version,
it won't appear in the menu. Donna wrote: Debra thank you for your suggestion, but I've done that and it didn't help.
