vlookup, xlookup functions does not function in excel and more

Ranko Skansi 0

Dear sirs, I have Office 365 correctly updated and I found out that in Excel, functions (vlookup, and xlookup - I din't try other) doesn't work. At the same time, in Word, there's no note about Saving to the disk, as was before. Usually Word writes "Saved to this PC" close to the Title of the document in the top of the screen. Now I don't have that option, as the word acts like notnig happend after I pressed Ctrl+S!

Your help on this matter will be more that appreciated!

You need to provide some details, such as a sample of what doesn't work.

Hi,

For Excel function problem, I suggest you check if the first column in the cell range contain the lookup value. Please be a bit more precise to explain your requirement or you can upload a screenshot so that I can get more accurate solutions to this problem. I’m glad to help and follow up your reply.

For Word problem, I suggest you go to File- Options- Save and check the option "Save to Computer by default":

Dear Emi, many thanks for your kind answer, butu the situation with Word hasn't change at all. I tried to uncheck and Save, then to check again and Save, but there's still no sign of File being saved.

Hi,

You're using the fixed update Office, emm...

Can you try to check if there are new updates and update it.

Then go back to File- Options- Save- make sure the option "Don't show the Backstage when opening or saving files with keyboard shortcuts" is uncheked:
