I download a text file from my credit card account of the previous months transactions. When I load the "external data" into my spread sheet I choose "fixed width." I can identify columns in the field that comes up but I can't move the display to the right to identify the remaining columns. My older version of Excel allowed me to scroll over. The new version doesn't.
