    Hide Background Error Checking Flags/Indicators?

    Hi,

    Im using Excel online in my browser via One Drive and ive uplaoded an Excel spreadsheet to it. It's working ok but when I open the sheet the background error checking flags become visible. I can suppress them by right clicking and selecting 'Ignore Errors' but when I open it back up again they simply appear.

    Anyone any suggestions on how to hide these for good?

    Did you try switching off error checking (in the general section of the Options dialog)?

    Hi,

    I dont see that unfortunately.

    All I have is a 'Regional Format Settings' option. I'm wondering if this is something to do with the licence bought by my employer?
