    spreadsheet contents have become hidden from view

    I was able to view the entire contents of my spreadsheet ,which contains
    names and number data only and no formulae ,but something has happened and now
    I can see the contents of 1 cell only which is displayed in the toolbar and
    yet
    I can still view the entire spreadsheet contents via print preview.
    Can someone tell me how to recover my spreadsheet data back into view so
    that I can edit it.

    Paste Special/Value

    Not quite sure what caused this but try selecting the whole sheet and doing Edit/Copy and then going to another sheet and doing Edit/paste special/Value. Or could just be Excel having problems so close/reopen Excel if you haven't already tried.

    Hi Clive,

    I have seen something similar when a workbook was protected, is yours?
    If so, unprotect it & you should be able to change the view.
