Excel 2013 - Missing # of Rows & Columns for Selected Range

[dblum89]

My office upgraded from Office 2010 to 2013. In 2010 and earlier versions, Excel would show the number of rows and columns I had selected at the bottom right of the selection before I'd take my hand off the Shift key or left mouse button. Now, it only seems to show this in the Name box until you've gone past the edge of the screen. Does anyone know if there's still a way to see the number of rows and columns selected when you move outside of the screen edge? I deal with large amounts of data and like to quickly hold Shift and hit End and the down arrow to go to the bottom of my data and see the number of rows. Sometimes I have blank cells. The Count in the status bar only includes cells that are not blank.

I figured this one out on my own, as I couldn't find anything by Googling it. If you go into File/Options and uncheck the box next to "Show Quick Analysis options on selection", the problem is solved. The number of rows and columns will now display in the bottom right corner of the selection after you go past the screen edge. It seems the Quick Analysis Tool icon is showing up in place of the RxC identifier.
