How to get detailed error messages #58

Closed KDean-Dolphin closed 9 months ago

KDean-Dolphin commented 9 months ago

I'm getting the occasional error message saying, "Save failed: The argument is invalid or missing or has an incorrect format."

The only solution is to restart Excel. How do I get more details so that I can submit it as an issue?

I'll close this one as a duplicate of #33, which tracks better error messages.

Usually, a save failure is caused by some syntax error in a formula, but there are other causes.

It is a tricky to get the exact culprit for a sync failure, but we have some ideas. I cannot make any guarantees about when we will be able to action this. I'll update the other thread if we make any changes.
