I have workbook with lots of sheets and formulas and it takes forever to
recalc the workbook, whenever a new entry is made in a cell. Is it possible
to disable recalc for the whole workbook, and then start it with a
controlbutton?

Hi,

You can disable manually or with code

Sub Yoursub()
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
'your code
Application.Calculation=xlCalculationAutomatic

or
Office button - Excel Options - Fromulas and set to manual or automatic

Or attach the code above to a button on the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) or on
the worksheet

If you want your button to act like a toggle, then just assign this macro to
it:

Sub CalcTog()

If Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic Then
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Else
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End If

End Sub

Here is another way to write your toggle macro (a one-liner)...

Sub CalcToggle()
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual + xlCalculationAutomatic - Application.Calculation
End Sub
