Default Excel Lookup formulas

Hi,

I have two questions:
1. I notice (occassionally) when I am using Vlookup/Hlookup to import data
to another worksheet that the rules to not immediatley reflect the correct
data. However, if I click on each data cell, and validate the formula (by
clicking on the 'tick') it immediatley returns the correct data. Is there
anyway of doing a bulk refresh that will somehow re-activate the rules that
appear to have become dormant?
2. Is there a formula that will find the largest numeric data entry in a
row, column, array?

Thankyou,

Don-

Re part 2 of your question =max(place range in brackets) should return
largest number.

1. Sounds like ToolsOptionsCalculation is set to "manual". Have a look and
set to "Automatic".

2. Try the MAX Function as in =MAX(A1:A10)
