At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new.

Auto Calculation. Fixed
Dan Jackson

Hi Guys,

I'm building a simplish spreadsheet but one of my cells isn't auto calculating.

The cell in question has a formula
=DATEDIF($J$2,$H$6,"Y")

If i put dates in both J2 and H6, I have to either edit the formula cell and re-press enter or use CTRL+ALT+F9 (F9 and Shift+F9 Do Nothing)
There are four of these in each row and all 4 have this issue


Other cells not using this formula are auto calculating fine
Ribbon > Formulas > Calculation Options are set to automatic
Settings Page Seems Fine
The cells are set to number format

Any Ideas?

P.S. Grr, just tested in a clean sheet and works fine

P.P.S Yep. Just rebooted and working fine. Grr. Argg. WOOF!

Anyone else notice the many bugs occurring with excel lately? I seldom use it but when i do theres always something going on like the above, or scrolling doesn't work. Just me?
