We have a couple of issues that might be bugs. At least we cannot find any fixes or help on the web. We have an Excel sheet with a sheet per Entity. All data comes from the same MDS.

Screenshot of MDS spreadheet

First problem

When we close the spreadsheet and open it again. We connect to MDS again but it is like some of the tabs/sheets does not connect again. The refresh button and publish button is greyed out (see screenshot - I have scrolled away from all the sensitive data). Any tips to fix this would be great!

Second problem

When above fails we would try to refresh the data fully from the MDS Explorer in Excel. However then it renames the sheet-tab and adds a number "1" at the end? (See Account 1 in screenshot) Is there any way to control this as renaming screws up the sheet for us?

Third Problem

This is harder to explain and it is a periodical problem - I cant find any way to really trigger it. So I just hope someone have seen this as well and found a fix for it. What happens is, while scrolling in one of the Entity sheets suddenly the first two lines which normally is split and freezed suddenly starts scrolling with data from the same sheet? So if you see the screenshot and imagine the 1-2 suddenly shows row 1050-1051 and scrolls as well with the normal rows.

Hard facts about the systems:

So please any help, pointing in the right direction, or explanation will be received on my knees kissing your hands :)
