Default No Dialog Box when Pasting Cut Cells


I am using one of the Microsoft Press books to learn Microsoft 2003.

When I cut a group of cells it instructs me to go to the Insert menu
and click cut cells and says that the content in the cells that I am
overwriting should be shifted to the right, but instead they shift up.

Because no Dialog box appears I have now way to change this.

I would appreciate any clues on either how to make the Dialog box
appear or to get the cells to shift to the right. I have already used
the Options menu to make sure that the Dialog box is activated.

Best regards,

Default No Dialog Box when Pasting Cut Cells

Hi,

That is the correct way:

1. Select a range of cell and choose Cut
2. Select a target cell where you want to paste and choose Insert, Copied
Cells

this should display the dialog box

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,
