Excel insertions (drawings, word art, pics, etc) are not visible.

My spreadsheet contains several drawings and word art. When working in the
document I cannot see any of these. They do not show up in print preview
either, but they do show up when I print. I've checked my options and view
and the show all box is checked.

When I put the cursor on the area of a drawing or word art, it turns into a
4 point arrow and the outline of the box shows up, so I know its there. And
like I said, it does print out.
This is office 2003 on winxp pro sp2. everything is up to date and no virus
or spyware. This must be a setting, but where?

Check the responses to your earlier posts on same question.

Have a little patience. Sometimes it takes a while for posts to show up.

By the way, you could immeasurily improve your newsgroup experience if you
would stop using the web interface to read or post to this newsgroup--it's the
slowest, clunkiest, most error-prone method there is. Do yourself a favor and
switch to a newsreader, such as Outlook Express, which comes with Windows. See

Or use a news reader like Agent, as I do.
