Not able to see where I'm typing...

On other excel progams, I've been able to see and correct or add on from where I was typing, but on this one, I cannot see where it is typing. This probably doesn't make sense. This is usually found above, on the top of the sheet. I can see in the actual cell, but if later I want to go in and correct that cell, then I have to type the whole thing over again.

I think you are referring to the formula bar. Check in the View menu to make
sure it is visible.

I don't know if this is the same issue I have, but sometimes (and not all the time - annoying!)I try and enter data into a cell in Normal view and at the first keystroke the whole worksheet auto-scrolls to the top of the page, so I can't see what I am doing or enter new data - what the *** ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY!
