I bought an older laptop and it had been reformatted and windows 10 installed
when I try to use my excel 2003 it will not work right
when I put numbers or letter in [a1] works ok
when I add letter or numbers in [b1] excel looks up
if I put all my number in column [a] every thing is fine as long as I don't try to put anything in column [b] along side what I put in column [a]
