Default Objects

I have got 2 spreadsheets and i want to insert 1
spreadsheet as a object in the other. However when i
insert the spreadsheet it inserts the spreadsheet along
with a number of empty rows and columns, i have checked to
make sure there are no text, formatting, borders applied
to the 'empty' cells.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks in advance

Michael

Why?

The inserted object will, I think, be an Excel Workbook.
Its worksheet(s) will have a full complement of 256 columns and 65536
rows.
You may only be able to see some of those rows and columns in the
representation of the object that you see on the sheet into which you
inserted it.

If you just want to be able to see a section of another worksheet but
not be able to change it then creating a linked picture is probably the
best option.

Edit / Copy the area you want to see
Select where you want the picture
Shift+Edit / Paste Picture Link
