Thanks for your ptompt reply Patrick, but I tried this already in many ways.
Range("I31").Select for instance
But the Cellpointer remains invisible.
Strange thing is that I can see (in the upper left corner of my screen, next
to my formula bar) that cell I31 is indeed selected. I even can "select"
other cells but still the cellpointer (is it called like that???) remains
invisible. It is eve possile to input data in the selected cell.
