Fix Research Data Analysis Issue

I’m midway through a research project and have hit a road-block with my data. All of my source material comes from academic journals and has already been extracted into several Excel spreadsheets. Somewhere in that process a technical snag crept in—calculations now return inconsistent results and a few sheets refuse to refresh properly—so my analysis has stalled.

Here’s what I need from you:

• Diagnose and correct the glitch inside the Excel workbooks (broken formulas, corrupt links, formatting conflicts—whatever is causing the errors).
• Verify that the cleaned spreadsheets open without warnings and that every formula, reference and pivot table recalculates accurately.
• Hand back the repaired files plus a brief changelog that outlines what you fixed so I can replicate the steps in future.

You’re free to use native Excel tools or complementary scripts in Python, R, or Power Query if that speeds things up; I just need a working, trustworthy dataset to continue my research analysis.

Once the spreadsheets behave, I’ll move on to the actual interpretation of the data—so speed and precision now are critical. If this sounds straightforward to you, let’s get this fixed today.
