Why is my Excel spreadsheet always upside down when I open a new sheet? I use a Mac laptop

There is a new problem: I cannot uninstall Onedrive - although I did restart the Laptop, there is always the message: Onedrive is open and can therefore not be moved to the trash.

How does ODBC with Excel work under Windows 7 without running Excel as Administrator?

Using Windows XP I didn't need to have admin rights to configure ODBC connections and as well none to use these ODBC connections e.g. in Excel 2010.

Now using Windows 7 I need admin rights to configure ODBC - that's okay. But I also need them to connect via ODBC to my database. When I don't run Excel as admin, the connection doesn't start (there is even no message why not) - I need to start Excel as admin
each time.

Is there no way to use ODBC without starting Excel as administrator? (I would be ok, when the admin password prompt appears when I try to connect to my ODBC data source... but this doesn't happen)...

The main problem why I can't default to run Excel as administrator: I cannot open any Excel-Document e.g. out of the Windows Explorer with Excel. I always have to start Excel first and then use the File-Open-Dialogue to access the Excel sheet.

Information:

I use an IBM ODBC driver for DB2 and Excel 2010, Windows 7 SP1

ist ein Office-Fehler!!!

Hello Elise,
<br />I use English language now - hope this yours as well.
<br />actually I seldom get a satisfactory reply from ms support pages. in most cases they do not understand the question.
<br />my "problem" is that I want use and apply simple single toolbars (no ribbons) as in all previous versions since 1993 and my present office2011 for mac,
<br />and which also work for each and every open workbook.
<br />unfortunately i can no longer use this version when I update my os to 'big sur' or buy a new macbook.
<br />someone from microsoft (in a chat on Oct 01) confirmed to me that I can now create my own toolbars, but i can only find the possibility to set up user defined ribbons/groups, which i cannot set up/design as I want them (only icons/no text and my own icons for my macros). moreover I can only open one ribbon at a time instead of having all commands available at the same time. finally ribbons are attached to every workbook instead of the application, and use a large area of the screen.
<br />In other words ribbons are absolutely useless (or just scrap)
<br />best regards
<br />Georg

i think i found the problem. easeUS Backup Software. i really forgot that i use this. i tested it. every time i do the "system backup" job it deletes the .ost files. i dont know why. i did SFC /scannow and "dism" to my system. rebootet. deleted the backup
job & created a new one. but the issue stays.

so i will check with their support if this is a known issue.

glad that file history and synology backup are not a problem.
