Excel 2007 Forgets Formatting

D

David Benson

My employer upgraded our computers to Excel 2007 a couple of months ago.
Since that time, I have had several occasions in which Excel has "forgotten"
some of the formatting in a workbook.

This has happened when I have opened a workbook, done some work in it, and
then saved and closed the workbook. When I reopen the workbook later, some
of the cells are no longer formatted the way they were when I saved the
workbook.

This has occurred both for files saved in "compatibility mode" (that is,
using the Excel 95-2003 file format) and in the new XTML format used by
Excel 2007. The loss of formatting occurs only on some cells -- others are
perfectly fine.

In all cases, the formatting that is lost is permanent formatting, not
conditional formatting.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what's going on with Excel 2007?
