Hello Hudan.

Press Escape. This should abort your changes.

After creating a data table, I double clicked into a cell
and deleted its contents. When I pressed enter, the
message came up saying "cannot change part of a table".
After some panic button smashing, I am now unable to
recover the original formula of the cell (I can only
undo,
redo the last thing I typed in there). Now I cannot get
out of the cell, go to anoter sheet or even quit excel
without recovering the original formula. Please help.
Thanks.
