Anyone know how to add a shadow around a group of cells in excel. I can add a shadow and 3d effects to a shape or object, but not to the border of a group of cells. This was possible to do in office 2003.

I am sorry but in MS Office 2007, you will not get a separate option for shadow. However, there are few new options available which can make your task more attractive. Just select the cell or cells you want to apply the effect to. Then from the Home menu (or say bar), click on Cell Styles from the dropdown which appears, select the style you want to apply. You can also go by a different and more customized method. Just select the cell(s). Then "Right-Click" on the menu, and then click on "Format Cells".

It is possible in Microsoft Excel 2007 not in Excel 2003. You can do that in Microsoft Office 2003 but the effects are not so good. The below like is a blog which show you the difference between shadow effect in Microsoft Office 2007 and Microsoft Office 2003. You can also learn how to add those shadows and modify the settings to make it more proper.
