Not necessarily........

If you're wondering how it got switched to "manual"......

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

To ensure that calculation mode is always set to Auto for that

particular
workbook, you could place code in a Workbook_Open sub in ThisWorkbook

module.

Private Sub WorkBook_Open()
Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
End Sub

Or have the code in your Personal.xls which opens with each session

of Excel.

Indeed. When he opened up the workbook this afternoon it was set to

Hi
check if automatic calculation is enabled ('Tools - Options -
Calculate')


Yes, it is set to automatic.
I have him checking to see the setting at the next time the

calculations hiccup.

Greetings,

There are few spreadsheets that one of my users works on that

have a
rather odd error. One in particular is filled with simple
addition/subtraction formulas. Quantity/Net Price/Total Price

type
fields. He uses the spreadsheet daily and is constantly

cutting and
pasting into and out of it.. so it functions sort of like a
calculator.

Sometimes he will be cutting and pasting into a field, say the
quantity
field, but the other fields wont update.

I've already reinstalled office 2000, re-applied all service
packs/updates both to office and windows, and actually rebuilt

his
entire machine from an image.

Still the same problem. I'd really like to get to the bottom

of this
and
get him back running with some stability.

Any help would be appreciated.
