I have a rather complicated spreadsheet with about 30 interlinked tab
running cash flow analysis - it's definitely a workhorse spreadsheet
The last couple of times I've tried to use it, I've noticed th
following error:
When I input data into a cell (any cell) and press Return, the data get
entered but the cell remains blank (and without the highlighted borde
of an active cell) and Excel does not advance the cell and I cannot se
it (i.e. it does not have the highlighted border) . If I press Retur
twice, it appears that nothing happens and I still cannot determin
which cell is active; but if the data entered is a link to a cell o
another tab, the second pressing of Return will bring me back to the ta
on which I was entering the data but the screen will be blank until
left-click the mouse. I know that Excel knows that I am moving th
active cell around with the arrow keys because I can see the cel
reference change in the cell name box. In either case, Excel onl
returns to 'normal' operation (i.e. showing me what I just entered
allowing me to control the cursor where I can actually see it) when
left-click the mouse.
Otherwise, everything appears to be operating normally.
If anyone has any thoughts on what might cause this abnormality or ho
to fix it, I would greatly appreciate it. This error is a strange on
and I don't even know how to search for fixes.
Thanks
