[CS-FSLUG] [OT] Strange Timing issue with Excel

[Doug Coats]

OpenOffice is on that computer and of course handled the spreadsheet just
fine.

It seems to be attached to "Page Break Preview" Option being turned on.

I will have to play around with different files on their computer to know
for sure if that is the culprit or not.

As a test, install OpenOffice and see if Calc does the same things.

Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time,
"Thou shalt not kill;"
and "whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:"
But I say unto you that
whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause
shall be in danger of the judgment:
and whosoever shall say to his brother, "Raca [shallow/stupid one]",
shall be in danger of the council:
but whosoever shall say, "Thou [morally reckless] fool",
shall be in danger of hell fire.
Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar,
and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way;
first be reconciled to thy brother,
and then come and offer thy gift. -- Matthew 5:21-24, KJV
