    Excel Version on Two Different PCs Changes Formulas???

    Hello!

    So I have a tracking sheet that I use record some games stats for my group.

    Oddly, when I open the file on one PC, it opens as normal and no issues.

    However, when I open it on another PC, it messes with one of the formulas. I cannot figure out why?

    They are different versions, the one with a newer version is the one with the issue.

    I am attaching the file with the actual formula, however, not sure how it will open on anyone else's PCs.

    I am also attaching some screenshots to show the discrepancy.

    Thoughts??

    I am opening the file in 365 version 2206 and it appears with no issues. This is a later version than the one you are showing in the word doc.

    However, when I open it on another PC
    Are you sure that the other PC is using xl 365 or 2021?
    The xlfn denotes that the formula is not supported.

    Thank you guys for your responses. The strange thing is I have used the file on both PCs in the past, so it must be that one of them updated to a later version and something changed in the support.

    I understand now what the xlfn means.

    Might have to look into an update. Thanks again!

    It's probably the Sequence function that is causing the problem & that has been around for awhile, are you sure the formula has not been changed?
