Hi all,

I have a Excel spread sheet with calendar dates etc. It has suddenly started to turn cells blue (not all cells) with no user intervention.

I've checked conditional formatting and this remains off.


Upon using the latest backup, it's ok (no blue cells) and then at some point when someone opens it again, it will turn cells blue/

Any advice would be great?

Thanks,
Jimmy

Hi Skip,

One active application add in: Remove hidden data

The rest are inactive.

Cheers,
Rosa

What happens if you disable the add-in?

Skip,

We have another PC without this add-in, still same issue I'm afraid.

Are the cells turning blue because they're selected? Try pressing the F8 key.

@Lilliabeth

The thought went thru my head, but then I said to myself, "Naaa!"
