I've seen this problem before, but not sure what causes it. Try changing
your cell format to General, then back to Text. That usually clears it up
for me.

I am having problems with cells spanned several columns. I selected several

when I tried to print it, it prints the #'s instead of the text that I typed.

Could anyone shed some light? Any information is appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
