XL7: SPACEBAR Doesn't Toggle View Entire Map Command

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Excel for Windows 95, version 7.0

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Excel, when you edit a map object on your worksheet, if you press the SPACEBAR, the map object displays the entire map. However, if you press the SPACEBAR again, the previous view is not restored.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the SPACEBAR key is the "shortcut" key for the View Entire Map command when you are editing a map object. However, the SPACEBAR key does not act as a toggle to restore the previous view of the map object. This behavior is confusing if you inadvertently press the SPACEBAR key while editing a map object, and want to "undo" the action.

RESOLUTION

To work around this behavior, if you press the SPACEBAR key inadvertently, you can restore the previous view of your map by doing either of the following:

• Press CTRL+Y

  -or-

• On the View menu, click Previous
