Cell content partially disappears on entering the cell.

Copper Contributor

Good day,

 

I am experimenting a very strange and highly inconvenient issue with Excel 2010:

upon a double click on a cell in a spreadsheet most of its content disappears from both cell and fx view.

On entering the cell either from navigating with a keyboard or clicking with a mouse, the beginning of the content is not shown in the fx line (while still seen in the cell itself).

I have created a brand new spreadsheet and the problem is seen from the get-go.

Here is the original table, no cells are selected:

Then I click on B2, part of the text becomes invisible in both cell and the fx line:

cell_B3_selected.JPG

Same problem is seen whatever cell I navigate to
cell_C2_selected.JPG

or double-click on:

cell_A1_selected.JPG

This simply means I cannot edit first part of the text, as there is no content shown.

How can this be fixed??

 

Thank you,

Elena.

Hi Elena - may you share your sample workbook?

@Sergei Baklan sure, I just discarded it, but I'll create a new one in a sec.

 

@Sergei Baklan here we go.

@ElenaSm thank you, will check

@ElenaSm , my guess was wrong, I'm not able to reproduce. Try to do the same in safe mode (Win+R and excel /safe). If the same it's worth to repair the office.
