Distorted cell display in Excel 2010 – scroll away & back fixes it?

I have seen this problem on more than one of my clients computers. The problem is the display of an Excel cell is wrong/distorted. Scrolling so that cell is off-screen (out of site) and scrolling back to it fixes it.

 

I’ve seen this in two situations: when a user performs a paste operation, cells (or even whole rows) appear distorted with the formatting totally off (for example, it adds a bunch of extra space under the row or something). I know the user was using the right Paste option, and scrolling away from the row/cell and scrolling back to it fixes it.

 

The second situation I’ve seen this is when a user enters information into Excel cells and the text wraps around in a cell. The rows below where the user is entering information distorts visually. Again, scrolling away from the row/cell and scrolling back to it fixes it.

 

Any idea what is causing this, and if there is any way to fix it? Again, functionality remains, just visually cells and/or rows get distorted & one fix for it is to take that cell/row out of site by scrolling away from it and scrolling back.

 

Thanks,

Elizabeth
