There are 6 shop lights in the garage, each with 4 florescent tubes. They
have all stopped working. No spectacular flashes, no burning smell, the
lights just don't come on when I flip the switch.



There is a single switch, which is a lighted one and it happily glows
orange in the dark.



All outlets work, a couple of other incandescent ligts work, and the door
openers work. Garage has its own panel but no breakers are tripped.



Any ideas about where to start looking?


Sure sounds like you've got a bad switch -- unless the "other incandescent
ligts" are controlled by the same switch. It should be easy to find out.

Good Luck
