Using the Navigator
The Navigator, as the name suggests, allows you to view the contents of a spreadsheet, sheets, ranges, linked areas, graphics objects, and notes.For simple, single page spreadsheets, the use of the Navigator might be overkill, but as the complexity of the spreadsheet document increases, it can quickly prove it's usefulness.
There are three ways to invoke the Navigator
Firstly, there is an icon on the toolbar as shown below.
You can also select Edit - Navigator. Also, by default, the function key F5 will toggle the Navigator window ON/OFF
The Navigator window is shown below. It identifies all objects in the document and allows the user to select any object for further manipulation. For example. background images can only be selected through the Navigator
In the example below, we double-click on the named range and it is selected and highlighted for us.
