Double clicking in Excel
-
Why is it that when you double click in a cell in Excel, and you've not quite placed the cursor bang in the middle of the cell, you get sent to some totally random cell in the worksheet? I don't know what purpose this behaviour serves, nor how to stop it doing it. And while I'm at it, why is that when you double click in a cell in a table in Word does it automatically indent withing the cell? Again, how is that at all useful? Grrrr!
Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike... me...

Double clicking on the border of a cell goes to the cell before the next non empty cell, in that direction. (For example, double click on bottom border, it sets focus to the cell in the row above the next non-empty cell below the one on which you clicked)

Ah, I see... Except when the table is full, then it goes to the bottom of the table, which is bloody annoying when you have hundreds of rows! Still don't see how this feature could be useful, but at least I now know what to expect. Thanks:thumbsup:

How phenomenally useful.
