is MATCH a volatile function?
I have the following formula: =IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(B2,'1 31 07 FAS sheet
1'!$AG$2:$AG$65536,0)),"Matched",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH (B2,'1 31 07 FAS sheet 2'!$AG$4:$AG$58232,0)),"Matched","Unmatched")) If I manipulate other data outside the ranges in the above formula, the whole workbook recalculates. I've never seen MATCH referred to as volatile. Thoughts? -- Brevity is the soul of wit. |

This is helpful thanks. According to the link, the formula below must have
become volatile because it refers to other worksheets and I was inserting columns. -- Brevity is the soul of wit.

In 2003 inserting columns will force a calculation (2003 was the first to
allow you to aggregate based on whether the cell was hidden or not). It will not make the function volatile. However by inserting a row you may have changed the dependant range which will dirty the cell with the match and force the recalc. -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "Dave F" wrote: This is helpful thanks.
