Hi,

Thank you for posting in the MSDN Forum.

Since the issue is more relate to the end-user, I'd like to move it to Excel IT pro forum.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best regards

Fei
