Default Circular Reference quits

I assume you have the iteration (tools/options/calculation) set pretty high?

Yes and Yes. Errors persisit with calculation on Automatic or Manual.

Do you have workbook calculation set to manual?

Do the errors disappear if you hit F9?

If it's set to manual, go to Tools--Options--Calculation and select
automatic. I'm not very familiar with circular references, though, so if the
above is not the issue, I'm no help to you, sorry.

I have a large spreadsheet that caculates a loan in which negative cashflows
are added back to the loan. This is necessarily circular. The spreadsheet
works fine usually, but sometimes the circular itteration quits working and I
get #Value errors. If I remove and re-type the cells that have the circular
reference, all is well and the cells caculate correctly.

This spreadsheet has several hundred circular references to resolve plus 2
or three tables based on those circular references. Is the number of
circular references the problem? Is there a work around?
