How can I make a function calculate automatically?

Posted by GLITZ on December 28, 2000 1:46 PM

I've got a function that refers to a range of data to produce an answer.

If a cell in the refered to range changes, the function's answer doesn't update.

F9 doesn't work.
If I hit F2 and then enter on the cell with the function in it, the cell will then update.....

Am I missing something?
What do I need to change?

Put Application.Volatile in the code
for the function (I put it right before the
Dim statements, but the position may not matter).

It does not really answer your question, but it is nice to know if the other answer does not work:

You could include in an event procedure:

Application.CalculateFull

if any cell content changes...

A forced recalc by keybord takes place with "ctl alt F9", this seems to be undocumented...
