    Excel 2013 Formulas Show Zeros Instead Of Calculating. Works In Excel 2007-2010.

    Attachment 258197I have a problem that may be hard to describe. I'll do my best to explain what is going on.

    1) I have a document created that is running in compatibility mode Excel 97-2003.

    2) This document is on a shared folder and is shared with multiple computers.

    3) The formulas show all zeros when the document is opened in Excel 2013

    4) The formulas work correctly *Formulas calculate a result* when the document is opened in Excel 2007 and Excel 2010.

    5) Periodically the formulas work correctly in Excel 2013.

    Here is a picture of what is occurring:

    Other worksheets within the spreadsheet work 100%. Only the one worksheet seems to have this issue.

    Is Automatic calculations turned off?
    This is turned on.

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    have you even looked at the picture you attached??? I would need a magnifying glass to try and make anything out in it!!

    Please do not upload a picture of your file...rather, upload a sample of your workbook, showing what data you are working with, a few samples of your expected outcome is (manually entered is ok) and how you arrived at that. (exclude sensitive info). Pictures are pretty much impossible to edit, and no-one wants to re-type your data for you
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    On my monitor if I set the screen resolution as high as it will go (1920 x 1080) text looks like it's about a size 2 font!

    I apologize for the difficulty viewing the photo. *my first post on these forums so still learning how to best communicate my problem* I knew this one would be difficult to describe so please bear with me.

    We use this spreadsheet to for work and it keeps track of all of our financial information and I didn't want to post it on the internet. Thought a photo showing columns of all zeros would have been enough at first. I was wrong.

    Do you guys suggest I post a copy of the spreadsheet but with random sample values? Would this help.

    Yes, a sample workbook with dunny data would be great, then we can play around with it. Include some sample answers if you can?

    I'll start working creating a file with sample data and post it as soon as I can.

    Still working on getting a working copy of the spreadsheet done up. In the meantime I think this may have something to do with my problem

    Here is the sample workbook as requested.

    Second worksheet should show zeros for all of the columns when opened in any version of Excel 2013. Please confirm.
