Please post this in "Q&A" section.

Thanks Survutt, I posted again in the Q and A section

I'd say you are using excel wrong.

Excel creates files to manipulate data, not to make a flashy template with it, although a lot of people make use of it like that.

Thanks SkrOYC, 

I guess I'll use PDF for purchase orders instead

Just that I wanted them to be in excel format so that who receives the orders and can quickly work in excel file (and import data to their ERP system if needed)

You can still make an xlsx file if you want to send them the items of the PO as a range on excel for them to copy and paste wherever they need.

You could also make an HTML template and send them the PO that way, which may be a little bit better than a plain pdf
