Excel is not updating cells options formula workbook calculation set to automatic

0 votes

Formulas should typically be set to automatic as a response to this query. In my situation, this is not effective.

The second typical response is that an Excel parameter is being affected by a macro. That's not how my issue is at all (xlsx file).

My straightforward formula in Office 2010 is not updating.

The formula is:

=IFERROR(TRIM(OFFSET(MainCopy!AG$3,$A77,0)),"")

The spreadsheet is updated for everything else. The appropriate value is in the cell in MainCopy. The value shown is the value from before I updated the data on MainCopy. The value on this page remained the same even after I updated MainCopy.

I have:

  • Researched this issue on the internet - all solutions easy to find do not address this problem
  • Pressed F9 (did nothing)
  • Pressed Shift-F9 (did nothing)
  • Turned calculation to manual and hit all combinations of F9 (did nothing)
  • Turned calculation back to automatic (did nothing)
  • Saved with a new name (did nothing)
  • Re-updated data on MainCopy (did nothing)
  • Selected the cell and hit F9 (did nothing)
  • Put my cursor in the box and hit enter (UPDATED VALUE CORRECTLY)

I cannot put my cursor in each box and hit enter, there are too many boxes. In addition, this is creating a major error trap in a spreadsheet that needs to be corrected. Is there some obscure setting triggered in this file that is creating this issue?

This occurred to me today in a worksheet. The affected cells did not update when I pressed F9 or enabled Iterative Calculation, but they did when I double-clicked the cell and pressed Enter. This was located in the help article titled Change formula recalculation, iteration, or precision after conducting a search in the Excel Help system:

CtrlAltF9:

Recalculate all formulas in all open workbooks, regardless of whether they have changed since the last recalculation.

 

CtrlShiftAltF9:

Check dependent formulas, and then recalculate all formulas in all open workbooks, regardless of whether they have changed since the last recalculation.

So I tried CtrlShiftAltF9, and sure enough, all of my non-recalculating formulas finally recalculated!
