The "trick" I was missing is that if you select a whole column, then to drag it you must position the cursor within the selected cells and *not* within the column heading. Same for rows. If you try to drag while the cursor is within the heading then all that happens is that the selection expands. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
