buttons disappear when in another country

G

While trying to demonstrate my super application at a different site,
all the buttons and checkboxes disappeared after being visible for only
a second. When adding a button it disappeared too, showing only an
outline when autosize was set to true. :confused:

Back in my own country things went back to normal. I'm using Microsoft
Office 2003. Any ideas?? Codepage/localization issue?

Are you taking your own computer to the other country? Or are you
running your Excel file on a local computer there?
In either case, try to use the original regional settings for the
computer that works properly.
