Stupid, stupid question....

[Guest]

Hi all, I'm hoping someone can assist with something that is SO
straightforward but is driving me nuts...!

On my work-pc, when I insert a break in a macro, I can then move from line
to line of the code by pressing F8 - the yellow highlight will then move to
the next line, and that line will run. On my home pc, this doesn't happen,
and I can't find any setting to activate this feature! The yellow highlight
appears on the next line to run, but it won't move on... I find this feature
very useful when debugging and really could do with activating it...

Both pcs run Excel 2003.

Apologies for asking such a dumb question, but I'm officially At My Wit's
End here...

Cheers
DS

Hi DS,

Perhaps the F8 key on your home machine is not functioning - perhaps simply
stuck?

Select the Debug toolbar from the View | Toolbars menu. The Debug toolbar
includes a 'Step Into' button.

Thanks Norman, turns out all my "F-keys" were disabled. Must have been the
kids... *ahem* Works perfectly now they're switched back on...

I'll get my coat...!

Add the step button to you debug toolbar...!
....was just wondering what it could be..?

We all do silly things.
