MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / September 2007Excel 2003 Spreadsheet Issues
If I open my Excel 2003 spreadsheet the bottom half of the sheet has all solid black lines in each row and I can not see the type. I can put the check marks in boxi, but nothing else. If I print it, it prints with the black lines. If I send it to another user, they can open it up just fine. If I use Excel 2007 it shows a Security Warning about active content has been disable. If I select Options.... To Enable this content. It shows my text that was blocked out..... But everyone else is on Excel 2003 I need to fix it there. Please help!!! Bob Viancourt Bob, Do other workbooks behave that way? What about a new one? If so, suspect that style Normal has gotten corrupted. Also, try the usual fixes. See "Excel acts generally goofy" at http://www.smokeylake.com/excel/vfaq.htm  SignatureEarl Kiosterud www.smokeylake.com Note: Top-posting has been the norm here. Some folks prefer bottom-posting. But if you bottom-post to a reply that's already top-posted, the thread gets messy.

The style named "Normal" controls a cell that's never had any formatting changed. You can get to the styles with Format - Styles. But I think I'd try the usual fixes I mentioned first -- don't know if they'll apply here, but it's what we always do when Excel gets weird. Also, check the knowledge base at microsoft.com.
