In Excel 2000, I use to be able to see a data field in the toolbar area. If
I entered something in the current field, it would be their too. I could
also choose to enter data there. I noticed a while ago that it had
disappeared. I have only just tried to restore it but not having much luck.
Does anyone know how to do it or even what it is correctly called!
This sounds like you're writing about the Formula bar.
Make sure that
View|Formula bar
is checked.

You were right thank you. All that faffing about! I couldn't see the wood
for the trees.
Thanks again
