    I have a set of procedures that require auto recalc to be on to work correctly. I've tried application.volatile and Application.CalculateFull with no luck. I'm trying to put together code that makes sure recalc is on, but that first determines the current recalc status and then changes it back to Manual when necessary. I don't know how to determine the current status. The following code should work if the red sections are fixed. Can anyone help?


    1. Sub TempAuto()
    2. Dim CurrentState As [COLOR='Red']unknown[/COLOR]
    3. CurrentState = [COLOR='red']Application.Calculation status[/COLOR]
    4. Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
    5. If CurrentState = [COLOR='Red']Manual[/COLOR] Then
    6. Application.Calculation = xlManual
    7. End If
    8. End Sub


    Thanks,
    Steve

The percent change formula is used very often in Excel. For example, to calculate the Monthly Change and Total Change. Select cell C3 and enter the formula shown below. On the Home tab, in the Number group, apply a Percentage format. Select cell C3, click on the lower right corner of cell C3 and drag it down to cell C13. For those who prefer to use the keyboard, 'Alt-F' opens the File Menu, then 'T' chooses Excel Options. Click the down arrow to navigate to Formulas in the dialog box. Finally, choose a calculation mode: 'Alt-A' for Automatic, 'Alt-D' for Automatic with Data Tables or 'Alt-M' for Manual calculation. Important Considerations About Calculation Modes.

How to Calculate a Workbook / Worksheet When the Calculation Mode Is Set to Manual

Calculation

On the Excel Options dialog box, click Formulas in the menu on the left. Scroll down to the Calculation options section and select Manual to prevent the formulas from being calculated every time you make a change to a value, formula, or name or open a worksheet containing formulas. When the manual calculation mode is enabled, you will need to press F9 on your keyboard to force formulas to recalculate. Note that there is another way to change the calculation settings in Excel 2010, and that option can be found on the Excel Options window. If you would prefer to use that method, you can skip to the next section.

Once manual calculation mode is engaged, Excel will only recalculate its workbooks when you tell it to. You can recalculate all workbooks by pressing the F9 function key or you can click the Calculate button in the status bar at the bottom left-hand corner of the Excel screen. Note that Shift+F9 can be pressed to only calculate the worksheet that you are on. You can also press the Calculate Now and Calculate Sheet buttons in Ribbon pictured above to perform the same calculations. By the way, looking at this button when a workbook first opens or is being used is a great way to know instantly if the calculation mode has been set to manual. The Calculate button in the Status bar only appears when the workbook needs to be calculated.

Also if you set the calculation mode to manual and save your workbook, that setting will be stored with the workbook so when the file is reopened, Excel reengages manual calculation mode if it is opened first before any other workbooks. This feature can vary depending upon what is open so always check it. Be careful saving workbooks in this mode because many Excel users are not used to seeing the calculation mode disabled and become confused when first encountering it. Also look on the Excel Options dialog box (File / Options) on the Formulas tab for the settings just discussed. There is also a check box on that tab that controls recalculating the workbook before saving if it is in manual calculation mode.
