    Increase size of excel name box
    The Name box in Excel 2003 is too small to show all of the assigned names. How can I increase the size?

    Simply drag the box until the text fits.

    Thanks, but my name box doesn't drag... Other parts of the tool bar have drag bars, but not the Name Box. Tried clicking at all points but no drag.

    Not sure what you are calling the name box, can you attach a screen shot?

    Will not upload. Message says file type needs to have sie changed and I do not know how to do so. The Excel name box is at the top left corner just under the folder and printer icon. This is the box where you can view the Cell Names you have assigned. If you select one and clik, your cursor goes to that assigned name.

    Sorry but I tried to upload as bmp, word doc, etc. no luck.

    I believe that box may be constrained, but I no longer have access to Office 2003 to check.

    If the screen shot is creating too big a file you can try reducing the size within a doc file.
