Excel takes the Calculation mode each session from the settings on the first
workbook opened in that session.
i.e. If you saved Book1 with calc mode in manual and opened it first, calc
mode would be in Manual.
If you saved Book2 with calc mode in auto and opened it after Book1, Book2
would be in manual mode(Excel ignores the auto calc mode in this case).
If you close Book1 before opening Book2, Book2 will be in auto calc mode.
Confusing enough? <g

Chip,
Excellent. Thank you so much!
I still don't know why I need to refresh cells that have formulas to get
them to display the proper result though.... Let me know if you have any
ideas? This seems to have happened at the same time that my worksheets
accidentally got grouped together.

Paul,
The [Group] means that you have two or more worksheets grouped
together, and any changes made to one will be made to all. Right
click a tab and choose Ungroup.

Using Excel 2002 SP3. I have been working with an excel file
with the same
file name and path for several years. Today suddenly when I
opened the file,
the file name on the title bar has [Group] after the name. I
also noticed at
the same time that several of the formula cells are not getting
updated
properly until I go to the cell and edit it (making no changes)
then it shows
the correct value. [ I hit F2 to edit then return with no
changes and then
the values display properly.].
Does anyone what this [group] at the end of the file name in
the title bar
means? It is only happening with this one file....
Thanks for any help you can provide!
