Default Worksheet_calculate()

=Now() is a volatile function, meaning that it calculates every time that a
calculation is executed. If you can, try to find a way to replace the now
function with a constant. You can update the constant base on some other
event such as a sheet activate or workbook open or... Otherwise you can also
add a criteria to the calculation event that ThisWorkbook is the active
workbook. If it isn't then abort the rest of the procedure.

I'm usinin the following code to highlight the filtered column with a
different collar.
To make it works I've entered =Now() in some cell.
Everything is fine. But, when I'm opening another spreadsheet the procedure
is being automatically triggered producing the error "out of range".

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim af As AutoFilter
Dim fFilter As Filter
Dim iFilterCount As Integer
'Application.EnableEvents = False
If Worksheets("Initiatives").AutoFilterMode Then ' gettin an error "out of
range"
Set af = Worksheets("Initiatives").AutoFilter
iFilterCount = 1
Worksheets("Initiatives").Unprotect ("donit")
For Each fFilter In af.Filters
If fFilter.On Then
af.Range.Cells(1, iFilterCount) _
.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 ' 15 - gray; 35 - mint green
Else
af.Range.Cells(1, iFilterCount) _
.Interior.ColorIndex = 15
End If
iFilterCount = iFilterCount + 1
Next fFilter

Else
Worksheets("Initiatives").Range("A1").AutoFilter
Worksheets("Initiatives").Range("A1:H1").Interior. ColorIndex = 15
End If

How could I fix it?

Thanks
