Summary

This article describes the Microsoft Office 2010 issue that is fixed in the hotfix package that is dated February 28, 2012.

INTRODUCTION

Issue that this hotfix package fixes

Consider the following scenario:

  • You have a document library or a list in a SharePoint 2010 site.

  • You add a Person or Group column to the document library or to the list. In the column settings, the Allow multiple selections option is set to Yes to let you select multiple users and groups.

  • You add more than one user or group to the Person or Group column.

  • You switch to Datasheet view, and then you open the drop-down list in the row that contains the users or groups that you added.

  • You click OK, and then you click in a cell in another row.

In this scenario, every second user or group is removed from the drop-down list. Additionally, if you update the drop-down list continuously, every second user or group is removed until a single item is left in the list.
