Cannot remove blue "trace Dependents" arrows..

Post by roadcase »

Hello,

I have 3 cells that will not delete the blue precedent or dependent arrows (of which there are several), no matter what i have tried.
I am aware of <tools-detective-remove all-traces>>...but it does not work.
Even deleting the cell contents does not remove them.

If I trace other cells anywhere on sheet...the arrows/lines get removed when directed as above...but these 3 problem cells just stay and stay.

Thoughts?

Is it possible you have applied protection to those cells?
Cheers

You can try this:
Show Toolbar Drawing
Click "Select" and select the arrows.
Click Del.
