When I enter information (text or numbers) into some cells it enters with
a line down through it (like editing in Word). I don't know why this is
happening although there may have been information in those cells
previously that was erased. Help please.

And remember to check to see if the strike-through is the result of conditional
formatting, too.

If Biff's formatting response and conditional formatting isn't the cause, maybe
you have an event macro firing???

When you checked the formatting, you saw that Strikethrough was applied?

If yes, turn it off and you'll probably be done.

If it wasn't, then look on the Home tab for the Style group. There's an icon
for conditional formatting.
