Default scrolling in table

you know that, i know that, but the boss will only work
in word and there's that pesky 1024 limit in excel. so
there you go. nothing i have been able to say or do will
detach the boss and word. and it is unreadable!

The obvious answer is: don't use this format. If you're

having trouble so
much trouble writing it, the end result will be

unreadable. Choose a format
that works for the material you're dealing with.

People often insist that they must use a particular

format because "it's a
requirement" -- this is almost never true. Even the

prickliest of
bureaucrats will accept a readable document in

preference to an unreadable
one, whatever the requirements may say.

i have an extremely large table which is formatted in 6
point arial, legal landscape. i'm doing revisions and
have blown it up to 150% to be able to read it on the
screen. however, this means that scrolling from the

end
of cell to the one below moves the cursor the first

cell
in the row, necessitating a lot of scrolling. at 150
percent, of course, the column does not fit on the

screen
(small monitor, can't be fixed). any suggestions?
