    Cell Height & Width in Inches

    Folks, Is it possible to format cell height and width based on inches. It looks like it's based on picas. I have searched Excel's Help as well as on this forum, but no luck (or else I missed it). I would like to be able to make a cell (as an example) .25 inches high by 1.45 inches wide...

    Launching the Wrong Browser

    Folks, Is there any way of making 4.79 my default browser without uninstalling and re-installing it again? If this has been previously answered, point me to those replies. I did a keyword search, but only came up with how to make IE the default. Thanks for your time and appreciate any...

    Preferences Causing 4.79 and 4.8 to Freeze

    I installed Communicator 4.8 and when I go into Prefeences, the program locks up on me. I uninstalled 4.8 and went back to 4.79. I'm getting the same hang up, though 4.79 worked fine before I upgraded to 4.8. I have run Norton WinDoctor to see if something was amiss, but the system is coming...

    I have a range - A1 to A9 - that is not to be altered. The macro that I'm writing moves the active cell from wherever it is to the very first cell in the row. I want to check to see if the active cell has moved into this "off limits" range. If so, then the macro will relocate the...
