Iwan Setiyono Ko

Hello all,
Help me!!! I have noticed that excell has been malfunctioning at my
computer for quite some time. I have two problems with charting:

1. My axis title for the Y axis is truncated, for example if I intend to
give a title of "Population number", excell truncates them into
unfavourable one, like "Population numb", and even worse the next letter of
the sentence, i.e. the "e" was half displayed, leaving an impression of
cracking words.

2. Another peculiarity with my excell program is that it does not allow
(give me choice) to resize my title axis, while strangely, it does allow
me to do so with the main chart/graph. When I point my cursor to every
inch of the border it does not become available for resizing.

These 2 problems are persistent to the printing document and the
associated pdf file. I have tried anything I could to try to fix these
problems, like re-start the computer, uninstall and re-install the
antivirus program, completely enable the excell macro, uninstall and
re-install the office program, including the excell, and even re-install
the operating system XP SP2, but nothing works.

When I open/edit the chart/graph with the same excell version from another
computer (at the office) the truncated axis title does appear there but I
can edit/fix and resize it. Moreover, the printing document and the
associated pdf file are just fine. So, in this case, I would probably
assume that the problems are likely to be caused by either the computer
(or the operating system?), and if it is true, it is so embarrassing since
I bought the laptop new, guaranteed and sealed; it is not a refurbish.

I have been experiencing this problem with 2 excell versions, version Pro
2000 and now Pro 2003. I use Norwegian language version of Windows XP SP 2
OS.

My questions
---------------
1. Are these problems caused by the computer (hardware) or the OS?
2. How can I fix the problems?

Thank you for you kind assistance.
