Viewing a row in a "form view"

[Jim]

I'm using Excel 2000 to catalog books. Each row is a
given book and each column represents an aspect of said
book i.e. Title ; Author ; Category ; Sub-Category ;
Publisher ; Publishing Date ; Edition ; Series ; ISBN ;
OCLC ; LCCC ; LCCN ; Description ; Location etc etc all
the way up to column AY. I'm stating the obvious so as to
avoid any confusion. How does one create a function so
you can view all the aspects of a given book all at once
in what is called a "form view"? Microsoft Word
incorporates this function but I don't used Microsoft Word
because Excel works so much better. I've tried using the
Help function in Excel under the category of 'Form View'
and seem to get nowhere. There is probably a simple
answer to this -- at this point I'm not afraid to say
HELP! All and any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Sincerely
Jim

hight light all of the columns that you have your information in
then select datd/form and see what happens. it may give you the info you
want
or select auto filter and then using the down arrow you can select the
info you want.
I hope this helps

I have a listboxviewer.xls that shows up to seven columns
wide.
It has a listbox showing details and also text boxes for
each topic. A snapshot can be viewed or the utility can be
downloaded from my excel site.
