Text Keeps Coming Back

If the text in a certain cell keeps reappearing after you delete it or after you type new information in that cell, you need to consider three possible sources from which that the old text may be being transferred into that cell.  Text is transferred from

1)      the registration information in  Start – Programs – Report Profile.

2)      the main page of the report

3)      the report profile (Contents-Report Profile).

 

Check these three possibilities first to make certain that the old text is not coming from one of these three locations. If  you do find the old text in one of these three locations, then correct it there.

 

After making the correction, make the change in the original cell where you were having the problem. Then check to see if the correction will stay by opening and closing the Report Profile.

 

If not, then you can use a shortcut and disable the Auto Transfer on the cell where you are experiencing the problem:

1)      Left click on that cell, then click Cell – Format.

2)      Deselect Auto Transfer and click Ok.

3)      Now it will be impossible for old information to be Auto Transferred into that cell.

4)      Make whatever changes to the text of that cell that you desire or even delete the contents of that cell, and your changes will be permanent with Auto Transfer disabled.
