Calc edits.. red borders?? What is that?

Post by ChasF »

Version: OO 4.1.2, Windows-Vista

I'm new here... editing Calc Spreadsheet... after I make changes/edits to a cell, red borders then appear on those cells with edit notes on prior changes made to the cell(s)? I don't care about the prior edits.. the red borders remain... what is that all about?... ChasF :knock:

Menu View > Track changes, uncheck "Record changes".

Hi,

it sounds like the red lining feature aka Change Tracking or Track Changes.

Have a look at Menu Edit - Changes - Record.

If it is active all changes to cells are recorded and can later be accepted or rejected. Please have a look at the Help system for further information about this feature.
