troubleshooting Question
After upgrading to office 2016, some excel files crash.
asked on
Greetings Experts,
I recently upgraded some of my computers to Office 2016.
I’m noticing that some excel files crash while using them.
Get a very broad error in the event viewer: Event id: 1000: faulting application name excel.exe version 16, time stamp xxxxxx
So no clue there.
If I take the file, I can open it in Excel 2010 without issue.
If I go to another computer with 2016, it crashes.
So it’s something to do with the version.
I copied the data from the worksheet to a new file, same thing, crashed when you go to edit data.
One of the files has a cell with the input: ‘December 2015
If I go to edit it to say, ‘January 2016 it crashes
If I go to another cell on the sheet, then I can edit certain cells without it crashing.
Very strange. Font?
Any ideas would help. Thank you in advance for your efforts.
My best-
Kacey
