Default error in excel help. how to select a cell after clicking the Select All button?

Hello
"To see all the relationships on a worksheet, in an empty cell type = (equal
sign), and then click the Select All button. Select the cell, and press
Trace Precedents twice." is written in Excel 2002 help. It's not possible
to "Select the cell" following the procedure. Or How to "select the cell" in
the procedure?

Maybe you didn't enter the formula (by pressing Enter after clicking Select
All)?

All typing "=" and clicking Selecting All and pressing Enter does is enter
the formula =1:65536 in a cell. Besides displaying the Circular Reference
toolbar that is.

The "Enter" isn't in the Excel help topic.

Type an =, then click the Select All button, then press the Enter key.
You should see a warning about a circular reference.
Click Cancel, to go ahead with the formula.
Select the cell with the formula
Click the Trace Precedents button twice, to see the relationships.
