Hello,
I work for a company and they just installed Office 2013 on my computer. As I opened excel to work my normal job; I noticed when I selected cells and hit copy....the outline of my copied cells was a dark green dash line like normal....The only difference was the dashes were not moving (marching ants) like usual. How do I get this back to normal? I want the marching ants.
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
if you go into the windows control panel....system....advanced system settings...advanced tab....settings....make sure 'animate controls and elements inside windows' is checked.

this is in the performance option tab in windows 2007, might be a little different in 2010.

you'd also want to check excel options...advanced....Display, and make sure there isn't a check box in Disable hardware graphics acceleration

you might have to fish around a little bit because it depends on the windows version as well as the excel versions you are using
