Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help.
There is a known problem with the MS Excel Fill Handle not working in the
Data Sheet view in SharePoint 2007 lists when using IE8. It works fine with IE6
and 7. (explanation: This is the feature in Excel that when you drag the bottom
right handle of a cell
Have you tried Compatibility View? You know, that little button that forces IE8
to render the way a browser almost should. ;)

Yes, that was the first thing I tried but it seems to make no difference. Is it
working for you?
Thanks,
Phil

Subject:
Nothing works in IE8 including the OOTB flyout menus. You can't fix IE8 but you
can force it to render your pages in X-UA compatibility mode.
Just jump into your master pages and insert the following meta tag right at the
top of the head section.
meta http-equiv=X-UA-Compatible content=IE=7 /
I think the tag should be:
meta http-equiv=X-UA-Compatible content=IE=EmulateIE7 /
Also - remember if your using IE8 64-bit, it is classed as a Level 2 browser
for SharePoint 2007 and DataSheet view is unsupported, or this documentation is
out of date:
