Default Stopping formula computations during entering data...

Hi!
We've got a sheet with lots of data and want to insert lots of
formulas using VBScript. Now, every time we insert a formula
the whole sheet gets recomputed and the thing runs three hours.
Is there a way to make Excel stop calculating and turn it on later?
Lots of Greetings!
Volker

ToolsOptionsCalculation, check Manual.
In VBA: Application.Calculation = xlManual

Kind regards,

Hi Volker,

Try:

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

'Your code

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
