Excel jumps to A1 when selecting a range on another sheet during VLOOKUP
Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a strange issue in Excel and I’m hoping someone can help. Steps to reproduce the problem: Open a workbook with at least two sheets (Sheet1 and Sheet2). On Sheet1, start typing a VLOOKUP formula When selecting the table array range, switch to Sheet2 to select the range. Excel unexpectedly jumps the selection or view to cell A1 on Sheet2, losing the intended range selection.
why is excel changing a formula in a locked and protected cell
I have quite a complex spreadsheet for use in my hobby of PBM - the spreadsheet includes an order form for players to submit instructions but with 1 player i am experiencing problems that I cannot fathom why it is happening Upon emailing my spreadsheet, one of the cells in a hidden and protected part of the form keeps changing, the formula changes for no obvious reason creating an error as it is then trying to bring in/read data from an invalid cell. This only happens with this 1 person, everyone else who receives the exact same spreadsheet has no issue, the formula does not change and the spreadsheet works as intended - just not for this one person. the cell is hidden and protected, the sheet is also password protected - it should not be possible for this cell to change but it does. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Both myself and the recipient of the spreadsheet run office 365 so there should be no issue with compatibility. as i say it is happening only to this one person, nobody else, and i do not understand why - looking for ideas on how to resolve this issue!!
Delete cells with 3 consecutive consonants
I submitted a question a little while back asking how to delete cells with exactly 3 consonants. The response I had was a huge help, but now I'm faced with a similar problem: How do I sort words by consecutive consonants? And if that cannot be achieved, how can I instead delete cells from a sheet in which a word has 3 consecutive consonants?
