Hi howard.

I opened the cell using the f2 key and again it says edit.

Using the left or right arrow keys does nothing.

 If i press the home key, then press the number 5 key it says the first letter but if I press the number 6 key to go to next letter....nothing.

Any other thoughts.

A while back there was a tip about going into options, into advanced andturn off allow editing in cells which I did do.

Should I then go back into settings and make it allow changes?

HTH
