I've an update! I contact them 2 hours ago for the forth time to check if they solved the issue. The issue is not solved yet, but I found a smart guy who can worked around a temporary solution. He basically made me remove excel and he sent me the link to download and install the previous excel version. It worked, as of now! If you guy want you can try to contact them and ask to guide you through the process. Hope this post will help you out

- JohnnyOOODec 18, 2022Copper ContributorI followed the links you posted and installed Office 16.64 and my data is functioning correctly.
I do hope Microsoft addresses this problem as it is sad that we Mac users have to go back to a version from April 13, 2021.
I have shut off auto updater for Microsoft and will monitor here to see if it EVER gets fixed.- RameshYedhulaJan 27, 2023Brass ContributorReceived a mail from Microsoft notifying that they have released a new update, where they have addressed all this issues, have anyone checked. Is it working fine now
