Cannot use this command right now

    If a command cannot be chosen, it is displayed in gray or another color on the menu. Change views if necessary, and choose a valid command. To find out more about a command, select it on the menu and read the information in the message line.

  2. If the formula bar has a blinking cursor, press ENTER to accept the entry or press ESC to cancel.

  3. If you started to copy or move text or data, press ENTER to complete the copy or move, or press ESC To cancel.
