Some text formatting may have been changed in this file because the maximum number of fonts was exceeded.

What does this mean? One of my users has been getting this and I cannot find anything on it.

Anytime they open an existing excel spreadsheet. Does not happen when they create a new one.

 

[SkipVought]

So if they create a NEW one and then SAVE & CLOSE, then REOPEN, then they get the message?

What happens when you open Excel without opening a file?


Go to Start > (All) Programs > Microsoft Office > Microsoft Office Excel 2007

Do you get the message?

Does not happen when opening a file in this manner.

Seems to only occurr when double clicking from explorer.

Try using "Format Painter" to make the cells that have the exact cell format to reduce the # of font/colour scheme used. ie. if cell a1 and a2 are bold & green and you apply the format separately, Excel will count them as 2 formatting. If you format a1 then paintbrush it to a2, Excel counts it as 1 formatting. I think there is a 3K+ limit for the font/colout per worksheet.
