Hello

 

It is not clear to me what your problem is.

 

Is it a wrong formula?

Is it a missing dropdown?

Is it a pivot table?

Is it a shared workbook?

Is it wrong data entry?

Is it that management thinks you are the main user?

Is it that you will be ask to leave?

    Hi Detlef

     

    So glad that you have replied.

     

     

    My answers to your questions.

     

    Is it a wrong formula? Not sure. As its done by my boss.

    Is it a missing dropdown? Yes from my excel 2016 version. But from her excel 2010 , no issue at all.

    Is it a pivot table? Its around 10 excel sheets in the same file with one pivot table included.

    Is it a shared workbook? Yes , among 5 users

    Is it wrong data entry? Yes , a handful

    Is it that management thinks you are the main user? Currently my colleague is helping to key the first few columns for the past  2 weeks but there was no issue on wrong data previously.

    Is it that you will be ask to leave? Sad to say but my direct team lead and senior came to tell me that its best I leave.

     

    Thanks in advance for your help.

     

    Regards

      I'm afraid that wasn't very helpful since you more or less answered every question with a "yes".

      It is still unclear what your problem is.

      Maybe you can provide a sample and anonymized workbook with clear indication to the problem.

        I do not have the file with me at home. Let me check when I get back to the office tomorrow.

         

        Thank you.

         

        Regards
