Formulas not auto updating
I can't get any of my formulas to auto update in Excel 2007. What am I doing
wrong? The formulas are entered in properly but they don't auto update. Also, I should be able to copy and paste formulas but that doesn't work either. Please help!!!! |

Go to Tools-Options-Calculation, make sure automatic calculation is enabled.
If it is, you might have cells that are formatted as 'text' that you wrote formulas into. You will need to change the format, then re-input the formula. -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "Steve" wrote: I can't get any of my formulas to auto update in Excel 2007.

Is calculation mode set to automatic?
"doesn't work" is not very descriptive. What happens you try to copy and paste formulas? Nothing? Error message? Is "enable fill handle and cell drag and drop" checkmarked?

Formulas not auto updating
Hey there! Thank you both so much. That's what was wrong. The calculations
options were set to manual. Any ideas what would have switched it from Automatic to Manual? I didn't change anything on the spreadsheet. Thanks again!

Excel uses the calculation mode of the first workbook opened.
All subsequent opened workbooks will have that mode.............no matter which mode they were saved in. Are you loading Personal.xlsb with Excel? Make sure the settings are automatic on that workbook. Gord On Thu, 25 Jun 2009 14:31:01 -0700, Steve wrote: Hey there! Thank you both so much. That's what was wrong.
