Track changes - different color?

G

Guest

Hi,

I am using Excel 2000 and I am trying to use the "Track Changes" feature. When I make a change to a cell, the cell gets marked by a triangle in the upper right hand corner, and if I hover the mouse over the cell, I get a popup telling me what the change was. This is ok, but I'd really like this to work more like the track changes feature in MS Word, where changes are shown in a different color and what was originally there gets crossed out. I was wondering if I can set Excel up to work this way?

Thanks,
Paul

Paul,

I don't think you can do this in Excel.
