How do I stop cells from expanding?
Hey all. Just got Excel 2003, and have a real basic question.
I'm working in large files with very long cells, and everytime i click into one to edit it, it expands to take up almost the entire screen. Problem is, i need to look at cells in other columns, and this is a huge pain. How do i get it to stop? Thanks in advance! |

If it is the formula bar that bothers you can turn it off temporarily under
viewformula bar -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "frodomojo" wrote in message ... Hey all. Just got Excel 2003, and have a real basic question.

Don't double click, edit the cell in the formula bar.
