Data disappears!!

[Holey]

Hi,
while I'm working with excel, the existing data in cells disappear, stop
being seen. I select the rows with the mouse and my data is back! I had the
same problem with Excel 2002, however after an office update it stopped. Now
I'm using Excel 2007 (office 207 ultimate), I had all the patches but the
problem is still there. I think it's some kind of a bug, but nobody else
seems to have it, but me!!!

Hi Holey,

Do you mean you can only see your data when it is
highlighted? That is how it will look when your font
color is the same as the fill color. If you have a white
font and a white background you will only see the
data when the cell is highlighted.

For that to happen all of a sudden there would most
likely be a conditional format doing it or maybe a macro.

Just guessing as your post isn't very explicit.

Hi MartinW,

I really wish it was that simple, however, it is more like a bug. One second
I can see my data, next, it's gone, when selected it comes back, and after
that i can see without highlighting. First I thought it was something to do
with my computer's memory but as I said before, after a patch it was ok with
2002 version. It's really annoying this way...

Thanks anyway,
Holey

Sorry to ask this, but is this happening with every Excel spreadsheet
you create/open, or are you referring to a specific file that this
problem occurs on?
