Autofill and Crosshair Cursor on Excel 16.38

I am using excel 16.38 on a mac and am trying to use the autofill feature, however, the crosshair cursor doesn't appear whether boxes are highlighted or not. How do I use the autofill feature with this version?

  • If you don’t see the fill handle, it might be hidden. To display it:

    1. On the Excel menu, click Preferences.

    2. Click Edit.

    3. Under Edit Options, check the Allow fill handle and cell drag-and-drop box.

    Do let me know if this works
  • Hello,

    Have you tried CMD + D to autofill?

    You can try another workbook to see whether the autofill cross will be available or not
