Hi,
My guess is that calculation has been turned to manual. Do the formula update if you tap F9? If so E2003 Tools|Options - Calculation tab and select automatic E2007 Office button - Excel options - Formulas and select automatic Mike "ace" wrote: Hello, I am having this problem: 1.

Do you have auto or manual calculate on the spreadsheet? Go to tools,
options, calculation and see what your settings are. You may need to change it to Automatic Calculation. "ace" wrote: Hello, I am having this problem: 1.

Thanks to all of you smart people who knew the answer to my problem. It was
in fact the manual setting in the formula options. My next question is, how did it get set to Manual? :-) -- ace "Mike H" wrote: Hi, My guess is that calculation has been turned to manual.
