    UNDO doesn't work

    Hi!!

    I just purchased and installed Office 2010 on my lap top. I am a 2003 user trying to set-up and learn 2010 and I cannot get my UNDO/REDO buttons to work.
    They are activated while I am editing a cell but as soon as I press enter they dim and become inactive and I cannot UNDO the last or any action!!!
    HOW DO I TURN ON THIS FEATURE?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated by this 2010 novice!!
    THANKS!!!

    UPDATE:
    If I start excel in safe mode the problem goes away and Undo/Redo works just fine. I have all add-ins disabled and when I look in VBA there are no macros visible!!!

    If it's a new install & you haven't recorded any macros then you probably haven't got a PERSONAL.xlsm.

    If you do have a PERSONAL>xlsm then it will be hidden. To unhide a workbook select the View tab and click Unhide.

    Hope that helps.
