I have 4.1.2. Had a spreadsheet all made up, was fine, but I added a new column on the 10th, and the squares were all outlined in red. If I placed the arrow on one, info popped up. I can't make them go away, and actually, not sure what I did, but all the info is gone.
The red outlines are how changed cells are indicated when you have the recording of changes switched on. Any cell you modify - which includes entering data or adding new columns or rows - will be edged in red. In addition, what is effectively a comment is added to the cell or cell range, showing details of the change, along with the date and time that it was made and identification of the user who made it.
The idea is that you (or another user) can later go to Edit | Changes > | Accept or Reject... and selectively keep or discard these changes. But since you have somehow toggled on the recording of changes by mistake, you need simply to go to Edit | Changes > | Record to remove the tick, and then to acknowledge the warning shown. Note that information about changes is lost as are the red edgings, but the changes themselves - all your work - are preserved.
I trust this helps. Brian Barker --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
