We are using Excel 2003. The version hasn't changed. These are existing
worksheets that all of a sudden stopped automatically updating the date.
Literally, worked one day, then didn't work the next.

There is a windows registry setting that can be changed so that newer versions
of excel recalculate these links in the same manner that earlier versions of
excel used.

But I don't think this is the solution. But if you try it and it works, please
post back.

Yes. It is in autocalculation mode. What is really weird is that the
formulas used to work.

Tools|Options|calculation tab (in xl2003 menus) is where you'd toggle this
setting.

The formulas =now() and =today() in two of our worksheets no longer work.
They used to automatically update the date when the worksheet was opened.
The same formulas work in other worksheets. Any idea why they are no longer
working. We want the date to automatically update to that day's date
whenever the worksheet is opened.
