Some mysterious behavior within a simple worksheet (Excel 2013 - Win7, but also continues if workbook is opened on Excel 2019 - Win10): Cells in column "A" are getting populated with a formula after I enter a number in cell of column "C". For example: When I enter the number 123456 in C23, the following is automatically entered into a previously blank A23: =HYPERLINK("http://gigapan.com/gigapans/"&C23,C23) which is what I want, but how is it happening automatically? There are NO conditional formattings (that I can find), NO Worksheet_Change VBA subs running (NO VBA code at all for this workbook). The result is what I want, but it is driving me crazy not knowing how it got set up this way!!! Took the xlsx file to another computer with no Personal.xlsb to interfere and same behavior. Suggestions?
