Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Hi Andrew, being a total newbie i do not think the record a new macro can work whilst the the wizard is active, i bow to your knowlege due to helping me in the past ?
