Both M209 and N209 change when I change C5 from 12/20/12 to 6/1/12
arbitrarily. (I am making no effort to try to understand the logic of your
worksheet.)
Note that M209 has the formula =SUBTOTAL(109,[NetAmt2]) and N209 has the
formula =SUM([Sh Obl2]).
My guess is: __you__ change C5 (you neglect to give an example the
demonstrates how), it causes changes in some hidden cells in [NetAmt2], but
no non-hidden cells. Ergo, SUBTOTAL(109,...) correctly remains unchanged.
In contrast, I stumbled onto a value for C5 that changes non-hidden cells
(et al?). Ergo, SUBTOTAL(109,...) does change.
But when I change C5 to 6/1/12, I notice that the amounts in J109 and K109
do not change. They have the formulas =SUBTOTAL(109,[NetAmt]) and
=SUBTOTAL(109,[Sh Obl]).
Is that what you expect? Or are those the unchanging values that you really
want to discuss? |
I'm glad that you were able to get Cell M209 to change. It does not update correctly for me.
All the cells in column M are dependent on C5. I am filtering 'out' all entries made after the cell in C5. You are right that not all value changes in C5 would result in a change in M209. But I'm never seeing an update. If I select C5 and put the insertion point in the formula and hit enter (that is force excel to consider that cell dirty)... it does update correctly.
What is truly bizarre is that this only happens when I add that column programatically... that is via VBA code. When I add the column by hand... exact same logic the subtotal does update correctly.
What version of excel are you checking this again. I suspect I may have stumbled across a weird bug in excel tables...but need to test weather this works correctly in other versions (or possibly in the same version but on a different install).
Thanks for the help! Sorry you are not able to repro scenario on your install.
