formula won't calculate unless I click cell
I am using a countif function in MS Excel. It is counting the instances that
a particular date/ time occurs in a list. The function references the criteria in an adjacent cell as follows In cell A2: 9/1/06 5:00 PM In cell B2: =countif( D2:D30,A2) The countif function won't calculate until I double click on cell A2 which puts a cursor in it and then hit enter on my keyboard. Any ideas on why I have to click the referenced cell to get the formula to calculate? |

Do you have calculation set to automatic? Tools--Options--Calculation.
Make sure automatic is checked. -- Brevity is the soul of wit. "steel1960" wrote: I am using a countif function in MS Excel.
