Switch calculating cells off
I'm using a massive workbook. Everytime I do anything, the entire workbook
has to re-calculate every formula. This takes too long for me, to have to wait after every small amendment I make, or after every new cell is updated. Can I switch off the calculation whilst I make my changes and then swith it back on again, when I am ready? |

You can go to Tools - Options - Calculation - Uncheck the the automatic
calculation or choose manual calculate. Then press F9 to make the whole book calculate. Or press Shift+F9 (i think) to only calculate the active sheet. "Al" wrote: I'm using a massive workbook.
