Excel 2013 - Sheet disapears when writing formula or selecting data

Hi Guys,

https://youtu.be/UARW_oo-3ak

Has anyone experienced this when working with Excel 2013?

The sheet disappears when entering a formula, clicking select data on charts and any other field selection function. Still able to write the data to the field but cannot see or select fields. Clicking the screen will bring the sheet back to view. Closing Excel and opening the workbook again seems to rectify the problem for a while.

Any help would be appreciated.

I can't access the video from my work computer right now, but the symptoms can sometimes come from a computer that needs cleaned of all temp files. I prefer to use a free program called CCLEANER (Cee Cleaner). I would allow the program to delete all those unneeded files, then reboot the computer and see if the issue remains.

FYI - although you can use Windows DISK CLEANUP, it does not clean the TEMP folder within the Windows directory, as CCLEANER does - hence my recommendation for CCLEANER. Note - there are other programs that work the same, some free, some paid, but cannot assess the efficacy of them.

If this does solve your issue, I would recommend re-booting your computer at least once a week to allow Windows to perform some needed maintenance.

Thanks, I'll give this a go and let you know if it occurs.
