- Dave_P-939Mar 01, 2024Copper ContributorHi Rachel; Thanks for the reply. I don't see anything else open. I was able to get around the situation by double clicking on a cell and was able to enter my info. I'm still stuck with the white cross though:(
- rachelMar 02, 2024Iron ContributorGreat job solving the issue by yourself!
To get to the bottom of this, do you still recall the last time you see everything is "normal" in excel, and what changed between then and now?- Dave_P-939Mar 02, 2024Copper ContributorIt's about a week since I last worked on this sheet. The only change is the cursor went from an arrow to a white cross. I can now enter things without the double clicking so it is acting as a regular cursor. Do you know how I would get to cursor settings? I might be able to select a new cursor (arrow).
Thanks
