Mysterious words appear
One of the computers at my work just started inserting random a word in each cell of any new spreadsheet. We watched this for several minutes before ending the program, and this bug filled several hundred cells in that time. We are using Excel 2003. We checked the computer with Symantec Anti-Virus 10, Microsoft Anti-Spy ware Beta, Spybot search & destroy, and Adaware. There were no detected threats. We do not use Voice recognition software, or have macros running. Has anyone else experienced this, or is there anyone who might have a solution to fix it? -- Dbarker ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dbarker's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=27705 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=183156 |

It probably has voice recognition activated.
