If this is a duplicate message, I apologize. I don't think that my first try
succeeded.

When using my Microsoft Excel spreadsheet in Widows XP (that I imported from
Microsoft Works in Windows 98SE) I can't insert a new row (I can insert a new
column). When I select the row and click on "Insert," then "Row," I get the
message: "To prevent possible loss of data Microsoft Excel cannot shift
nonblank cells off the worksheet. Try to locate the last nonblank cell by
pressing CNTRL+END and delete or clear all in cells between the last cell and
the end of your data. Then select cell A1 and save your workbook to reset the
last cell used. Or you can move the data to a new location and try again."

To me this message is meaningless. Any suggestions?
