I put a formula into approximately 240,000 cells that is taking a bit of time to complete (I put the FALSE parameter into VLOOKUP) Is there a quick way to cancel a currently working Recalculation?
 

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
go to tools then options then calculation then select manual. Hit f9 when you want to recalculate

Actually, I'm looking how to stop one while it's going. I have one going right now that I need to stop (killing Excel would lose me about a half hour to 45 minutes of work so I'd rather stop the recalc)
