Yes, this is the same spreadsheet that has been applied in my Vista laptop and under my desktop with Windows 8.1 and the Vista laptop has no issues with the resulting calculations.

The Vista laptop spits values such as "41.30" "2.870" etc and these values are simply not there in the desktop.

I appreciate all your help

It would help if you can provide screenshots of the actual formulas producing those #VALUE! errors, as well screenshots of the precedent cells that feed into the formulas. It will assist in determining if the cause of the issue is data entry.

Since this spreadsheet was created for me, how would you suggest that I find the area where the formulas and precedent cells are stored? Again, sorry to sound dense...

Would it be possible to attach a copy of the workbook that does not contain sensitive information to a reply?
Best wishes,
Hans

I will have to ask the developer of the spreadsheet because it is password protected.

While you are at it, you could inquire from the developer if they have any suggestions to fix the sheet too. :wink:
