Re: weird problem with Numbers
Hello Gigi, Just a thought, in Numbers Preferences, I have Back up previous version when saving Editing: unchecked, as well as Include preview in document by default. I must admit, I've never done anything very complex with Numbers so I don't know what else to suggest.

Re: weird problem with Numbers
Hi Anne. Here's the best I can explain. When I go into numbers, and I have some files in its list of recently edited files, I first get the layout window. I interact with that with control-option-shift-down arrow. Then I get the list of tables. If I make the mistake of interacting with the wrong one, I sometimes get an older version of the file and sometimes I get weird stuff like letters and/or numbers in the various cells. I have to hunt around, if I can't remember which table is the right one, to get the last saved numbers file. As far as I know, I'm doing the right commands. If not, I hope you can tell me which of these things I am doing wrong.

Re: weird problem with Numbers
Hello Gigi, Could you explain exactly what you're trying to do with Numbers? It could just be that the commands you're using are the wrong ones and therefore have unwanted effects.

weird problem with Numbers
Hi Guys. I am having a really weird problem with Numbers that I can't figure out. I don't know if I can explain this so it makes sense. First, I am getting a Problems error, and I end up with more than one table for my file. I have no idea where these tables came from, and sometimes I can't figure out which one to interact with. Some of them, with when I interact with them, make no sense. Others appear to be older versions of the file. I have Lion, and as far as I know, I have the latest. Has anybody else had a problem like this, and what did you do about it? Getting frustrated, because I am getting things I don't want. Can I erase, assuming I can find out which ones are the wrong ones, the extra tables?
