    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.

    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
