Excel won't calculate
We have rolled out Office 2007 across the company, and this week I have had
two users with the same problem. The have a calculation in a cell that the copy down. The formula is correct right down the column, i.e. A1+B1 goes to A2+B2 etc... but the value all the way down is the same as the first cell the formula is copied from. There are no absolute values in the formula. Is there a fix for the obvious bug? At present we can't trust Excel. |

In Excel 2003 it is Tools/ Options/ Calculation, and set the mode to
Automatic, not Manual. You presumably need to do the equivalent in 2007, & the 2003 to 2007 translation utility says that the equivalent of Tools/ Options is Office button/ Excel Options. -- David Biddulph "Keith" wrote in message ...

Excel is already set to Automatic, and it doesnt happen all the time. The
same spreadsheet might work the next time after the computer has been re-booted. Other times just closing Excel and opening it again fixes the problem. I'm sure its a bug in Excel 2007 "David Biddulph" wrote: In Excel 2003 it is Tools/ Options/ Calculation, and set the mode to Automatic, not Manual.
