Mostly from lurking in the newsgroups and trying things myself.

You may want to invest in a book, too. John Walkenbach's are very good to
start.

Debra Dalgleish has a list of books at her site:

Change this line:
Application.Calculation = x1CalculationManual = False
to
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
(remove the "= False" and change x1 (x-one) to XL (x-ell))

And same with this line:
Application.Calculation = x1CalculationAutomatic = True
becomes:
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic

Use the first one at the start of your code Application.Calculation =
x1CalculationManual
This way any calculations will not occur until the program runs. This
typically causes programs to run slow as Excel will do whatever calculations
on the sheets then returns to the program.

Then before you end your program turn the calculator back on with
Application.Calculation = x1CalculationAutomatic
