Default If Statement not recalculating

Hello,

I have an If statement such as:
=IF(B2-C20,0,C2-B2)

Everything works well when I copy the formula to other cells below it. The
problem occurs if I change the value in column C to a higher value, the
result doesn't automatically recalculate. Does anyone know why?

Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have recalculation set to Automatic, under the meu for
Tools-Options-Calculation

Also, use this formula instead:

=MAX(C2-B2,0)
