    Formula correct, answer wrong

    I have a spreadsheet that when I copy the formula, it copies correctly
    (changes the cells it should subtract), however, the result stays the same.
    It matches the formula I copied it from, even though the cells to calculate
    are now different. I even did a paste special and said only formula, but
    still, same result. If I actually type in the formula, it works fine, but I
    have a lot I need to copy and paste. Is there a way I can fix this?

    Thanks,

    Perhaps you have calculations set to Manual.

    Press F9 to confirm. Calculations should now work.


    To set to automatic calcs:

    Go to Tools|Options and in the Calculation Tab, set Calculation to Automatic.

    Click Ok.

    It sounds as though you have manual calculation set.

    Go to Tools>Options>Calculation, and click the Automatic button.
