Excel file whose cell characteristics have been changed to "modified" automatically.

I have an Excel file whose
cell characteristics have been changed to
"modified". I did make a new file few days ago
and filled with data, I have
always considered whether the cells are
in default. This morning
I opened the file and (almost)
all cells are again adjusted.
Do you know why this happened? If so,
when can I do to resolve this?
With Kind Regards, F. van 't Hoff

Hi,
If you had an external data source which linked with the Excel file, please check the data setting in "Data tab>Refresh add drop down arrow>Uncheck
Refresh data when opening the file".
If your file had some formulas, please try to set it calculation manually
Formulas>Calculation Options>Manual.
Thanks,
George Zhao

  • "The file [name of file] may have been changed by another user since you last saved it." Issue affects both network and local files.

    When a certain user saves a file in Excel 2010, she gets a message: "The file <name of file> may have been changed by another user since you last saved it."  She can choose to save as another file or overwrite with her changes. 
    This just started happening a week or so ago.  She was concerned that someone else was accessing her files, but we did several tests that opened, made a change and saved in a matter of seconds, and she still gets the message.  It happens on
    most files, but not all – both network and local.
    We already tried the QFE_Saskatchewan registry fix.  I also checked the file server for Services for Macintosh.

    You may be confused by the error in Excel saying “another user”. Actually Excel cannot tell who (the real human) is editing the file. Based on my research the No.1 possibility of the error is KB2626998.
    2626998  Connection to a network document is lost in the 2007 Office system or in Office 2010 after the computer resumes from standby
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2626998
    For Excel 2010, follow these steps:
    a.  Click Start , click Run , type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK .
    b.  Locate and then select the following registry subkey: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Excel\Options
    c.  On the Edit menu, point to New , and then click Dword Value .
    d.  Type NetworkAvailableTimeInSeconds , and then press Enter.
    e.  Right-click NetworkAvailableTimeInSeconds , and then click Modify .
    f.  In the Value data box, click Decimal , type a number value, and then click OK .
    Note This registry subkey sets the time, in seconds, that Excel waits for the network to resume. For example, if you type 15 for the number value, Excel waits 15 seconds for the network to resume. You might have to do some tests in your own environment to
    determine an appropriate value. You may have to try multiple numbers.
    g.  Locate and then select the following registry subkey.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\office\14.0\common\Internet
    h.  Repeat step 2C through step 2F again. Reuse the same value that you used previously.
    i.  Exit Registry Editor.
    Feel free to post back. Thanks.

  • Check if cell's value have been changed

    Hi!
    This may sound simple, but can anyone tell me how to check if a cell's value on table have been changed when a list selection event happen?

    If there is no LR edits to keep, or if you don't want to keep the existing edits, you could delete the files from LR and import them again.
    Since the file names on disk and file names in LR don't match, you will need to manually match them up by hand individually, if you want to keep the existing LR edits.
    The easiest approach to this -- without doing any script programming -- is to go into each directory, one at a time:
    Select the correct folder in the "folders" pane. Right-click "show parent" as necessary to see the directory tree.
    Sort the LR Library by creation date.
    Using the details view in File Explorer, sort the files by creation date (add to the viewed columns if necessary).
    Assuming no more than 1 image per second, the files should line up.

  • TS3899 "cannot get mail" in iphone5 suddenly. been using iphone to check 2 email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is thunderbird and i get this error message now. no settings have been changed or anything! ideas?

    hey all, I have been getting the "cannot get mail" error message on my iphone5 suddenly.
    ive been using iphone to check two email accounts for months now, one is gmail and not troubled. the other is mail from thunderbird and i get this error message now saying it is not responding. no settings have been changed or anything, it just suddenly stopped receiving mail on my device as of Tuesday afternoon.
    Does anyone have iny ideas about why? i have yet to update to the new OS7 yet, could that be it?

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Trashed plists to fix the problem 'Your network settings have been changed

    What is the easiest way to get back the plists that I trashed when following advice on how to fix :Your network settings have been changed.

    Drag them out of the trash and put them back to the place from which you dragged them to the trash. If you emptied the the trash they are basically gone (unless you want to go to the excessive step of file recovery with $100 software and a spare empty drive). By the way, they are automatically created again with default settings when you invoke features that need them so it's not like you have a hole in your computer file collection.

  • My word perfect documents have been changed to .doc but I can't open them in pages. ugh!

    my word perfect documents have been changed to .doc but I can't open them in pages. ugh!
    they are wpd files from around 2001-2003 that my Dad emailed me and on a PC was easy to simply relabel as .doc but despite this I cannot open in pages or convert to pages.
    Please can you help me?
    cheers!
    DT

    In fairness to Pages, only apps that can handle Word Perfect docs of that vintage can open them, either.  W
    As Viking said, changing the extension does nothing to the file structure & metadata of the document.  At one time Mac people didn't bother with the extensions, because they were simply a visible indicator of the app that made them, and the Mac would get that information from the file itself.
    Since you changed the extensions, some Windows apps may still use those extensions to tell them the file source. When they try to open a .wpd file as if it were a .doc file, they will get very confused.
    You can try to open the files by using the Menu> Open command, with the setting of "all files."  IF and only if the app can handle .wpd files, then maybe it will open it & ignore the extension.

  • I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made & opening as read only for the 2nd person - but allowing them to save the file.

    1) I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made.  As soon as you open the file and exit.  It prompts for a save.
    All excel versions are 15.0.4701.1002.
    Using a table.
    the functions CELL, OFFSET, TODAY, INDIRECT, NOW, INFO and RAND are not being used.
    2) Same file.   2nd person is being told they are opening the file as read only - but when they are quitting excel prompts them to save the file. 
    Everything was working fine.  I started having problems with Excel, IT wiped my version out and re-installed office. 
    File is on networked server HP - Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  
    We are all on Windows 8.1 Pro.
    I really hope someone can help - the excel expert had no answer - and passed me along to here.

    I copied the whole file and started deleting worksheets one at a time and testing it by closing it and re-opening it then closing it again – to see if it wanted to save. 
    Once all the pivot tables were deleted – the problem went away. 
    I found that some of the pivot tables had automatic refresh upon open, so this caused the excel to think data had changed. 
    It is fixed now.  By clicking on one cell of the pivot table, analyze, options, data and uncheck the 3<sup>rd</sup> square down to not automatically refresh.  NOT A NETWORK ISSUE.

  • Fixed "network settings have been changed" message but now can't network

    As per suggestions, I deleted the files suggested, the message disappeared, and I reentered my network settings. But, now I can't connect to my laptop from my desktop. I can connect from my laptop to the desktop just fine, but when I try and connect in finder (and I tried connecting through network and through going to the laptop's ip address), it just spins for a while and then stops. Any notions?
    The com.apple.nat.plist file didn't regenerate, but I put an old one in. Didn't seem to solve the problem.
    Thanks!

    Ok, now I've gone and put back the original files in the hd/library/preferences/systemconfiguration folder. I've got the annoying "your network settings have been changed" message in my network window, but I still can't network to my laptop.
    Help?
    FYI: The desktop is an old 2ghz x2 G5 running 10.4.11 and the laptop is a new MB unibody running 10.5.5

    Hi Support team, somehow my mozilla settings have been changed and it became transparent, now how to change back to normal because everything is transparent, menus, pages etc.

    This could be the same problem other users are reporting as a white screen or black screen, caused by an incompatibility between Firefox 33 and some older graphics card/chipset drivers.
    Please disable hardware acceleration as a temporary workaround. Step-by-step directions in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1025438
    Does that work?

    I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

    I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
    This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

  • SAP report showing sales orders on which pricing conditions have been chang

    My knowledge is:
    Review pricing condition transaction data table (‘KONV’) helps is some way.

    Hi Ashish,
    I don't know any such a report, but I guess you can play arround with table CDPOS.
    Change doc. object = VERKBELEG
    Table Name = KONVC.
    Actually this will take lot of time.

  • STO-Handling units have been changed. No cancellation possible

    Hi All,
    I am getting the following error while doing the cancellation of outbound delivery in VL09.
    Handling units have been changed. No cancellation possible
    Message no. HUDIALOG304
    The Business Process:-STO(mov type 641) from Plant 1000 to Plant 2000
    ME21N->VL10B->HU02->VL02N(Assigning HU and PGI)->VF01(Proforma)->J1IIN(Excise)->MIGO(w.r.t Outbound Delivery)
    -> VL32N(PGR-Post goods receipt).
    Now i want to reverse the outbound delivery..
    For this I cancled the PGR in VL09(for Inbound delivery) and removed the assignment of HU then deleted the Inbound Delivery.
    Then cancelled the outgoing excise invoice.
    In VL09 for outbound delivery i am getting the error.
    Handling units have been changed. No cancellation possible
    Message no. HUDIALOG304
    Kindly guide me
    with regards

    For this the solution is we need to do STO proces in reverse direction.
    i.e from receiving plant to supplying plant.
    So i am closing the issue.

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    I am using a macbook pro with system 10.6.8. I just discovered that no recent files have been backed up to the external disk using Time Capsule.  There is a long list of backups including most recent but no recent files, for some weeks, have been backed up.  I did a full reset of Time Machine.  I disconnected the external drive and reconnected it. It is not a matter of file types, no files and no folders have gotten backed up.  Everything looks normal though unless one goes hunting for recent files on the back up.

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
