Some video drivers, particularly very high resolution (1024x768, 1280x1024,
and so on) drivers, may exhibit "jumpiness" when you switch from one
insertion point mode to another (for example when you move the insertion
point from the worksheet, where it usually appears as an arrow or a
plus sign (+), to the tab split box or the split box, where the insertion
point appears as a two-way split symbol).
If your screen is "jumpy", it may be difficult to determine whether your
insertion point is positioned over the split box or the tab split box when
these boxes are right next to each other. You may need to use a macro to
restore the tab split box to its default position.
The following macros each restore the tab split box to its default
position.
Sample Visual Basic Procedure
Sub CenterTabSplitBox
ActiveWindow.TabRatio = 0.6
End Sub
Microsoft Excel Version 4.0 Macro
A1: CenterTabSplitBox
A2: =WORKBOOK.TAB.SPLIT(0.6)
A3: =RETURN()
To use this macro:
- On the macro sheet, select cell A1.
- On the Insert menu, point to Name, and then click Define.
- In the Define Name dialog box, select the Command option.
- Click OK.
When you want to run either of the macros, click Macro on the Tools menu.
Select the name of the macro from the list of macros and click Run to run
the macro. Your tab split box will be restored to the default position.
