I need help! I created a worksheet before with formulas and I protected the
sheet. I made it so that rows can be added and numbers can be inputted and
the formulas will still sum the numbers. It worked fine until today. Now,
on the status bar, it shows Calculate and it doesn't add any new numbers
inputted. I have to unprotect the sheet and F2 the formula and enter to
update the sum. Why is this happening?

Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you are manual calculation mode. could be the result of several
things. Try going to Tools-- Options--Calculation and see if it is set to
manual or automatic.

Also, look for and circular reference errors at the bottom of your screen.
