Anne, in regards to your suggestion of using the trackpad to find a cell, this does work great. However, when I locate a desired cell on the trackpad, and then use the keyboard to enter data, the focus isn't in the cell I had focused on with the trackpad. Is this your experience? Are you able to type in the cell you located with the trackpad?
