FullScreen Mode Horizontal ScrollBar Missing
Hi
Im putting together a spreadsheet in Excel 97 and the user wants to be able to use the full screen mode. (window is also maximised) For most screen in the workbook this is ok as when FullScreenMode is selected the verticle scroll bar remains visible and due to the nature of the worksheet no horizontal scrolling is necessary - except on one sheet. The horizontal scroll bar reamins invisible. I have checked under tools options and the box is ticked to make it visible I have also writen a small code module for a button on screen that toggles the screen into full screen mode and sets the activewindows scrollbar to visible (see code below) but the scrollbar remains hidden. You can still move around the screen by using the arrow keys but the user is adamant they want ot use the scrollbar (he who pays the piper and all that...) Any help please - as this is possibly the last (fingers crossed) outstanding issue on this project. Many thanks GreenBoy Heres the Code: Sub MyFullScreen() If Not Application.DisplayFullScreen Then Application.DisplayFullScreen = True ActiveWindow.DisplayHorizontalScrollBar = True Else Application.DisplayFullScreen = False End If End Sub |

FullScreen Mode Horizontal ScrollBar Missing
It kind of sounds like the horizontal scrollbar is just off the screen.
Or... Can you see the worksheet tabs? If yes, then maybe they're covering the scrollbar. Try dragging the tab/scrollbar separator to the left.

FullScreen Mode Horizontal ScrollBar Missing
Dave
No - this is full screen as in the same as using the menu command View/ Full Screen - which togles hiding sll of the tool bars (except the menu bar) and the page tabs. What is also does is hides the horizontal scroll bar but NOT the verticle. I want to keep the horizontal one visible - thus my attempt at coding. Many thanks for your thoughts.

FullScreen Mode Horizontal ScrollBar Missing
I don't think you can separate the visibility of the horizontal scrollbar from
the visibility of the horizontal scrollbar. But even in FullScreen mode, I could size the window to "hide" portions of that window.
