The formula bar in Excel 2008 is at the top of the screen - not within the
Excel window like it used to be in earlier versions. It won't let me dock it
in the window like most of the toolbars. Is there a way to dock it in the
Excel windows?

Thank you,

Hi Darryl & Richard,

This is a "deprecated" meaning "no longer in service" newsgroup that
still appears on some newsgroup servers, which explains why you did not
get a prompt answer.

Unfortunately, the answer to your question for Excel 2008 is No. You
can't dock the formula bar to the Excel window.

-Jim
