application. ...

I was looking around in the list box that comes up when i typ
application.
are any of these following simple to make work, or do these require
huge workbook with lots of coding?
application.cursormovement (i thought i could do '= false' but i
didn't work)
application.assistant (i thought '.show' would work...)
application.mouseavailable
i'm really just looking for ways to spruce up some workbooks for work.
any other simple suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks

Good to see you're exploring Excel's objects.

After you've typed Application.CursorMovement, place the cursor somewhere in
the word 'CursorMovement' and press F1. It should give you a description of
what it does and even a link to an example.

Another way is to use the Object Browser (F2), from the first combo, select
Excel, then from the left pane select the Application class.
The list of methods, properties and stuff appears on the right.
If you select an item from the right, then press F1 (alternatively click the
? button for Help) it will show the help for that item.

now i know the secret! i knew there was something. i appreciate th
help. that brings me to the next of my neverending questions. my bos
just installed XP (against my vote) and it doesn't have help installed
when i click help it asks me if i want to install and i always do, bu
it doens't let me.
it says the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource tha
is unavailable.
is there a way to fix this, or should i just ask for my 2000 back

No, you should ask whoever installed XP to install the help as well.
