Excel voodoo happening. I have a workbook that works fine on many many computers. I started using Excel on a cloud server today, using Microsoft Remote Desktop on my Mac. When I opened the workbook (also on the server) the top row was missing. I mean it was there (things hadn't shifted up) but everything that had existed on it previously was gone. There is nothing in the macros that would cause this. There are multiple worksheets and it only removes the data from sheet 1 row 1.

If I open the workbook using Remote Desktop on another computer in my office the original workbook opens and the top row is still there. It only happens on the cloud server. If I fix the broken workbook and save it and then reopen it on the cloud server, the row is still there.

Anybody seen anything like this happen before? I know it doesn't REALLY matter because I can fix the problem, but I would like to know what is going on in case this happens with other workbooks.

Thank you!
