Format Cells - Tabs Missing

[Guest]

Just installed office 2000. Tried to use Excel. Wanted to format cell for numbers. Clicked on format and cells. There is only 1 tab. (Font). There is no Numbers Tab or any other tabs except Font. Please help!

Thanks...Jon

It sounds like you had not finished entering your value into the cell.

If I hit enter (to finish editing), then Format|Cells, I get all the tabs.

But I think you've found the way excel uses to format individual characters in a
text cell.

If you protected the worksheet turn it off, so you can make changes.

Tools, Protection

or possibly you have a shared workbook,
look under Tools and also under Tools, Protection
