Excel text corrupting problem
 
Has anyone seen anythink like what is happening in the Excel
screenshot below ..

http://www.jon-lamb.co.uk/tf_excel.gif

The text is corrupting in cells. Its just happening on one PC and in
most excel documents on that PC. It seems to happen a lot when cutting
and pasting. So far, I've installed all office and windows updates,
removed the anti virus software to test. Installed all graphics
driver updates.

PC spec is XP Pro, Celeron 3.2GHz, 2GB RAM. Office 2003

Any help much appreciated.

Rgrds,
Jon

I believe that the display in XL is more through the Printer Driver than XL
itself. Try using another printer deriver as the default printer - the
printer does not have to phisically present for you to do this.

Have you somehow copied a picture of a range over top of another range?
Using the camera tool, copy/paste picture, or copy/paste picture link,
perhaps?

Hi,

Thanks for the replies. Looks like going to Edit | Office Clipboard
and then the options of that and unticking everything has cured it ...
strange!
