    Re: Unwanted formatting

    Will you please attach a sample Excel workbook? We are not able to work with or manipulate a picture of one.

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment, so to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

    Re: Unwanted formatting

    You added the file, but I don't see which cells contains a wrong format and what the right format should be (manualy in your file).
    Notice my main language is not English.

    I appreciate it, if you reply on my solution.

    If you are satisfied with the solution, please mark the question solved.

    That is the true problem.

    What is "strange".

    And how should they look like?

    Re: Unwanted formatting

    I don't see those black lines in your file, if I open them.

    Did you also tried the solution in #2.

    • Add more RAM memory
    • Disable/Enable (un-check/Check) Options - Advanced - Display -Disable hardware graphics acceleration and try how it works
    • Clean both TEMP folders (user and windows)

    Re: Unwanted formatting

    You are welcome

    That is why I said: Clean TEMP folders (probably there was a dozen gigabytes of garbage)

    I suggest: Reg Organizer
