    Macro for Filter Switches ... Maybe???

    Excel 2000 ... I have a somewhat similar post on board
    from yesterday. It's all about keeping Filter Switches
    active on a Protected TabSheet & being able to Filter &
    UnFilter List without running into what I call Calculation
    churn ... Also, I do not write Macros ... I only record
    them. What I have:

    File is 30 Cols x 5000 records ...
    Sheet is Protected (no password) ...
    Filter Switches for all Columns reside on Row 2 ...
    Various Filter Switches may be activated ...
    Only 2 Cols have simple Formulas
    Many Cols have Conditional Formatting Formulas

    My Calculation is set to "Automatic", but this is causing
    a certian amount of calculation churn as each Filter is
    set back to view "ALL".

    Above said ... I am looking for a Macro (or idea) ...
    Basically, I want Macro to:

    Unprotect Sheet
    Set Calculation to "Manual"
    Set any activated Filter Switches back to view ALL
    Set Calculation to "Automatic"
    Protect Sheet

    Not sure if this is enough info, but have a great respect
    & appreciation for the "Magic" that comes from this board.

    Thanks ... Kha

    You say that you record macros, this sounds like an ideal candidate for a
    recorded macro.
