Andre_Oliveira Interesting. I am not sure what to tell you as that solution above worked for me. Have you tried creating a new View and/or used a new column with calculated formula to reference that problem column? Those might be some alternative workarounds to get the data to re-appear. Good luck!
Thank you for all the help!
I am staying with excel spreadsheets. I was testing Lists as an alternative also because of the mobile phone app. It seems it is not stable and reliable enough. I will consider it again when it's more dependable.

- Here are two compelling arguments for transitioning from Excel to Microsoft Lists:
Enhanced Collaboration: Microsoft Lists is specifically designed for team collaboration, allowing multiple users to work simultaneously on the same list without the risk of conflicts or data loss that can occur in Excel. Lists also integrate seamlessly with other Microsoft 365 applications, like Teams and SharePoint, making it easier to manage workflows and share data across your organization in real-time.
Customization and Automation: Microsoft Lists offers greater flexibility for customization and automation compared to Excel. You can use smart rules and alerts to automate tasks and ensure critical updates are communicated instantly. This can help streamline processes and increase efficiency, particularly for task management and tracking progress, which are less intuitive in Excel.
Switching to Microsoft Lists could significantly enhance your team’s productivity and data management capabilities, especially if your work involves extensive collaboration and task tracking.
