A Table linked to one of my Power Query Queries has started to show odd markings on the screen.
Total Cells are have odd blue backgrounds, some other cells have part blue backgrounds and random vertical dotted lines appear.

The image below and attached refers.

Does anyone know why this might be happening?

Thanks in advance

Looks like a rendering issue. Have you tried viewing the workbook on a different PC?

Thanks for coming back, Mynda

A rendering issue sounds pretty serious. I decided in the end to output the query to a new table and recreate the formatting.

Touch wood the blue lines have gone away now.
