When working directly within Excel you want this to happen 99.9% of the time (the exception being if you are working with an extremely large workbook).

Re: Shortcut to switch to manual calculation? Hi FDibbins-guess you didn't see my original post. I was asking because someone apparently accidentally switched things to manual when it needs to always be automatic (figured it had to be a shortcut, because that's the only way it could have happened accidentally).

  • If Sheets('Sheet1').Range('A1').Value = True Then Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual Else Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic End If. To run the macro please a button control on the sheet. Right click on the button control and under Assign Macro select the macro.
  • Change the setting to manual workbook calculations in the Options dialog, and then you can hit F9 to update the workbook as needed. Save the workbook as a new file and clear the formats.


When you click Insert Function, you'll see this dialogue box:

Click Cancel to exit out of the Insert Function box – if you're following along – and take a look at our sample worksheet in the following snapshot.
