She's pretty smart...she tried selecting all rows (click the little box in the upper left corner above the Row numbers and to the left of the Column letters), and choosing Format, Row, Unhide.  But that didn't work.

We selected cell A2, and used the "up" arrow, and the cell locator box (to the left of the formula bar) indicated that the cursor was, indeed, in A1.  That means the row was not hidden.

In cell A1, we typed some text, then set the format to be 20pt.  Then we selected all, then Format, Row, AutoFit.  Still nothing.

I suspected it might be something to do with Panes.  I went to Window, and noticed the "Unfreeze Panes" option was available.  We clicked it, and the missing Row 1 was instantly visible again!  Problem solved!

If your Excel Row 1 is not visible, give those few steps a try!

For example, Sheet 1 has a bunch of data going down column A, and on Sheet 2, for whatever reason, you need to do a calculation and you want it across row 1.  Or vice versa.

It's been frustrating me for a long time to have to manually make the change.  But, I've found the way to drag a formula and have it transpose.  The code works for either kind of transposition (horizontal to vertical or vertical to horizontal).

Assume source data is in Sheet1, A1:E1

In Sheet2

Put in A1:
=OFFSET(Sheet1!$A$1,COLUMNS($A$1:A1)-1,ROWS($A$1:A1)-1)

Copy A1 down by as many rows as there are columns in Sheet1, i.e. down to A5

A1:A5 will return whats in A1:E1 in Sheet1

Basically, set the $A$1 value to whatever the SOURCE is (the top left cell of the source range).  So, if your source is in C26:M37, you would put:

=OFFSET(Sheet1!$C$26,COLUMNS($A$1:A1)-1,ROWS($A$1:A1)-1)

Then as you drag the formula horizontally or vertically, it will work.

Hope it helps!

First, disable both firewalls to see if your computers can see each other.  Start, Run, Command, IPCONFIG to see what the IP address is for each computer...something like 192.168.1.x, probably.  Then, from the command window, run PING 192.168.1.x (with x being the appropriate number for the other computer).

Make sure both computers are in the same 'Workgroup'.  Vista defaults the name to Workgroup, XP defaults to MSHOME.

In Vista, Add a Printer.

USE LOCAL, not network.  I know.  It's stupid.  Trust me, it works.

Keep all the default settings, but name the local port:   \\xpcomputername\printername

Follow the rest of the 'Add Printer' wizard.

Your Vista machine can now see and print to the printer on the XP box!

But you CAN do it, without having to create a separate text box for each bullet.

Here's how:

• Select the text box that has the bullet list in that you want to build.
• Under Custom Animation, 'Add' a Modify Effect.
• Choose an Entrance.  I prefer 'Appear'.  Click OK.
• Click on the ellipsis (3 dots  ... ) next to the 'Property' drop-down.  (Even though Property is ghosted.)
• On the Text Animation tab, Group Text by 1st level paragraphs and click OK.

That will make your bullet lists build in OpenOffice Impress the same way they do in Microsoft Powerpoint.
