I'm using Excel 2002. I have 2 windows open, doc1 and doc2. I select a row
thereby highlighting it in doc1. I click in the the doc2 window to make it
the active window thereby causing the doc1 window to become inactive. When
the doc1 window becomes inactive, the highlight on the selected row
disappears. Is there a way to make Excel show highlighted rows, columns, etc
in an inactive window?
