Hi I am trying to apply a range between B6:N35 however whenever I
select B6 , i am told in Microsoft ,version4 page32 to hold the control
button and select the other cells when i do that and try to apply
Autoformat i get a error message, any advice would be appreciated?

Referencing your subject line ... in Excel 97 (my ver), think I can
multi-select non-adjacent cells and apply normal formatting options (via:
Format Cells). But the "Autoformat" option (via Format Autoformat) was
not possible. Excel would display an error msg, saying the command cannot be
performed with multiple selections.

But .. your range "B6:N35" appears to be a single range, in which case
Autoformat option should be available

If you go to the first cell hold down the mouse button and drag your
range to the last cell to select autoformat should work

Alternatively click on the first cell, press the shift key, then click
on the last cell yhen choose autoformat

by clicking on cells with control, you are selecting lots of seperate
ranges even tho the cells are next to each other, hence autoformat will
not work
