  Re: Fixed Objects Will Move

  What objects do you have in the workbook? Sometimes they're not immediately obvious. I've know of pictures being reduced to a single pixel space. Upload the workbook so that we can see the problem in context. Although I've never encountered it, it seems to have a long history, back to at least Excel 97-2003. Mỹ Duyên10114311 nói:
