Avoid recomputation in a large excel worksheet
I have a worksheet with 2000 rows and 20 columns. All of these cells have
formula to compute their values. Each formula gets recomputed even when the data used the computation have not changed - in short it takes an enormous time to recompute 40000 data whose values have not changed. Is there anyway to make excel stop recomputation when it is known that the values will not change, because none of those cells whose values are used in computation has been updated? |
Avoid recomputation in a large excel worksheet
This macro will convert the formulas to values for whatever selection you
make. It could be designed to do the selection for you Sub converttovalues() With Selection ..Value = .Value End With End Sub It could be designed to do without selections but you may want to retain some formulas Sub converttovalues2() With ActiveSheet.UsedRange ..Value = .Value End With End Sub -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "cox" wrote in message ...

Maybe it's your formula that needs to be reviewed?
You may want to post it to see if anyone can help. cox wrote: I have a worksheet with 2000 rows and 20 columns. All of these cells have formula to compute their values.
