calculation was set to manual?

Try selecting all the cells (ctrl-a, twice with xl2003) and then
edit|replace
what: = (equal sign)
with: = (equal sign)
replace all

Maybe it'll "wake up" excel's calculation engine.

I think I found the solution (infact someone else did it for me in the greek
excell forum!). Somehow it was ckecked in Tools - Options - View - Window
Options the selection "Formulas". I un-checked it and it seems fine.

Thanks,

Doros
