Hey everyone,

Just upgraded to Excel 2016. Now, whenever I'm building a formula which references other sheets, I get no visual reference of what I'm selecting. Meaning: when I click on the other tab and begin selecting cells to include in the formula - I get nothing on the screen that shows me what I'm selecting - no highlighting, no marquee borders, no dotted lines - nothing. The only way I can tell what I'm selecting is to look at the formula bar, where the formula is updating.

This doesn't happen when I stay on the same sheet as the formula, only when I'm referencing other sheets.

Has anyone encountered / resolved this?

Thanks! Randy
