<div class="">Dear IT Partners and MacPartners</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
A bit of warning re: installing the 15.22 Office 2016 update and Excel.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">If you have changed the Excel\Preferences\Edit and TURNED OFF “Edit directly in cell”… </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">It seems that now you can’t immediately click in a cell and start typing as Excel doesn’t accept the first number of character you type. You have to type the first number or letter to “open” the cell, then type it again for it to actually record
your keystroke.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This doesn’t happen if you have the “Edit directly in Cell” checked. However, that’s not my preference.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I hope MS fixes the annoying behavior.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This wasn’t happening until the 15.22 update was applied.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>

<div class="">p.s. Thank Paul for finding this comment.</div>

<p class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class="">Why did Excel 15.22 change to make the first key press open a cell instead of immediately typing into it? That hasn’t changed that since the 90s and is makes Excel incredibly frustrating to use.</span></p>
