    horizontal scroll bar

    HI,
    I can't get the horizontal scroll bar displayed in Excel 2007
    I have the vertical scroll bar.
    When I look at Excel options > Advanced > Display options for this workbook - both vertical and horizontal scroll bars are checked
    I can move the columns left and right with the tab key.
    How to I get the horizontal scroll bar/
    Thanks

    Vertical - Right side scroll
    Horizontal - Bottom of screen on the lower right.

    Thanks for the reply
    I do not see the line that shows sheets and the scroll bar at the bottom of the page. I see only the Status bar.
    If I start a new excel job I do see the line that has Sheet1 sheet2 sheet and the scroll bar.
    I don't know how to get the scroll back on existing excel files.
    Thanks

    This worked for me:
    Where are my worksheet tabs? - Excel - Microsoft Office
    Especially the his part:
    "If you still don't see the tabs, try this instead: On the View tab, in the Window group, click Arrange All. Under Arrange, click Tiled, and then click OK. "
