Screen rotation

Hi, not a specific excel question but I have pressed a button by mistake on my PC and my screen view has rotated 90 degrees. Can you please give me a clue as to how I can rotate the screen back to where it should be. I have tried in properties/settings/advanced but nothing there which shows rotation. I do not have a control centre on my PC.

thanks
Stuart

RE: Screen rotation

Hi Stuart

Not entirely sure if we can answer this, as it does not relate to an application that we support. Its the first time I have heard of a screen rotating 90 degrees on a button push.

Regards

Richard

RE: Screen rotation

Hi there,

You probably went to press ctrl+alt+delete and you must have pressed one of the arrow keys. To return your screen to normal, press ctrl+alt+(up arrow).

That should fix it. Hope that helps.

Excel tip:

Change the default location for opening and saving spreadsheets

If you are always opening spreadsheets from and/or saving documents to a specific location that is not My Documents, save time by setting this folder as the default for opening files from and saving files to.

Here's how:
1. Go to Tools - Options.

2. Select the General tab.

3. Enter the pathname of the folder you wish to make the default in the Default File Location box (hint: it will be easier to use Windows Explorer to navigate to this folder, then copy and paste the pathname from the address bar at the top of the Windows Explorer screen).

4. Click OK.

You have now changed the default folder for opening and saving spreadsheets.
