    Help: Column text color in Table changes unexplainably with new reference data

    I have attached the example file

    In the file you will see the sheet:BETS it has a small table that references info from the TODAY sheet.
    When I add a new line to the TODAY table (add 1 to cell A14 of the TODAY sheet) the font of DH column in the Bets sheet's table turns from white to black.


    Why is this, and how do I stop this from happening?
    I have tried converting the table on the BETS sheet to range then back to a table again, no luck.

    Any insight would be great.

    Thanks

    Change the formula in B3 of Bets to
    =INDEX(Table10[DH],MATCH(A3,Table10[TODAY],0))

    and fill down, that should eliminate the problem.

    You had an inconsistent formula in that column, it's one of the known "bugs" with tables.
