I got my excel version from Office 365. I edit and save the excel files in one drive for my other team. I send the link of the online excel to my client via email. I noticed when the link is clicked, online excel opens but the cursor is not in row 1 column A. It is in row 15 column F. My other excel files also has the same problem. When online excel is open via link sentâ?¦the file opens up but not in row 1 column Aâ?¦ What should I do to make sure row 1 column A is the row and column that will be shown when excel online is opened?
