Excel 2003 Student compare to standard edition

[Yar1964]

I am using Office 2003 Student edition on a home computer, and laptop. I have
recently received new state forms that I have to use for a bingo that I run,
these forms are done in excel and are read only and password protected.
Using Excel on my home computer and laptop (office 2003 student) it does not
show full conents of the cells and does not show them when printed either.
This is a protected form so I cannot change the cell properties. I also have
Office 2003 at work but is the standard edition not the student edition. When
using these forms at work they perform as designed, I can see the full
contents of the cells on screen and when printed.

Any suggestions on what might be the cause? If I buy the full version (not
student edition) will this make a difference. Is their a difference in the
word and excel programs that come with the student edition compared to the
standard edition?

Just a guess...

I would try changing the printer driver to see if that helped. Maybe you could
install the printer driver for the same printer you use at work--you don't have
to have the physical printer to test it (print preview and while you're viewing
the worksheet).

If the cells that are getting truncated contain dates, maybe you can change your
windows regional settings to a shorter date format (m/d/yy instead of
mm/dd/yyyy, say).
