Has anyone else's Microsoft programs switched back again from Aptos to Calibri?
Huh.  Looks like mine did this.

My latest issue with Excel:

Even though it's all still on MS Office 365, some of the recent updates have broken--or at least, caused instability in--the VBA scripts written in my some of my more complex documents.  Workbooks where buttons tied to macros have automated the process of doing long, tedious data manipulation, adjusting lookups, copy/paste, etc., that would otherwise take hours but the macro takes maybe 20 seconds.

I'm on my third iteration of trying to eliminate the instability but it appears that it may be a flaw with how VBA is now handled by the software.

Have any of you Excel users started getting the little floating Copilot icons in the bottom corner of your screen?  I can't get rid of it and, from what I'm seeing online lately, there's no way to do so.  I can "dock" it over to the side of the screen, where it's mostly out of the way, but it's back to floating again next time I open Excel.

*grrrrr*

Yuck.  Not looking forward to the day that NYS IT decides that AI is kosher at work.

It's coming...Have to say, there are times I wish we had access to speed up certain work...
