Not updating formulas
 
I have a large workbook (size about 10 MB) consisting of about 40 sheets
summarised into about five sheets. When I change a figure in one sheet it
used to update the summaries. It has stopped doing that. The option is set to
auto claculation.

To update now I have to go into the formula cell by pressing F2 and press
return. Pressing F9 does not work.

What has gone wrong here and how can I resolve this? Your help most
appreciated. Thanks.

Not updating formulas
 
If you are sure calc mode is automatic perhaps somehow you have changed the
formulas to text mode.

Select all sheets then select all cells on active sheet.

EditReplace

What: =

With: =

Replace all.

Ungroup the sheets and try again with entering a figure.
