Using Stored Views

Summary: Stored views do you very little good if you can’t figure out how to use them again. This tip explains just how easy it is to recall a view that you previously stored. (This tip works with Microsoft Excel 97, Excel 2000, Excel 2002, and Excel 2003.)

Once you have defined the views for a worksheet, you can use them to look at your information in different ways quickly. To select different views, follow these steps:

  1. Choose the Custom Views option from the View menu. Excel displays the Custom Views dialog box. (Click here to see a related figure.)
  2. Select a view from those listed in the dialog box.
  3. Click on the Show button. Your display settings are changed to reflect what was previously saved in the view.

Tip #2866 applies to Microsoft Excel versions: 97 | 2000 | 2002 | 2003
