With your permission, if I can recommend you, please always add specific information about your Excel version and operating system to your concerns. As well as, if possible or necessary, a file (without sensitive data) or photos. Information on where the file is, such as OnDrive or Sharepoint, is of advantage. In this way, you will come up with a proposed solution much faster and more precisely. This also makes it much easier for the helpers to provide the help that they would like to offer you.
