Auto Calculation

[Mahprr]

We use Excel 2003 a lot on our server. Recently we have started to find speadsheets with auto calcualtion switched to manual. My questions are how can this option be switched on i.e. does it come from a template. Is there an easy way to find all occurrances of spreadsheets with this indicator swtched to manual. Finally, anyway of overriding the manual indicator so that automatic calculation so it is always switched on...

many thanks for your assistance with this...

Thanks that was useful, but still does not address my question of a easy way of tracking down spread sheets with the calculation set to manual. Because I know this issue will keep coming back to haunt me.

Perhaps you didn't fully grasp the idea behind the final sentence.

Simply open a *known* auto calc sheet *first*, at the beginning of each
session.
Eventually, all your current WBs should become "auto".

I hear what you say but I have 50+ users to control they can get the spreadsheets from server, email, harddrive basically anywhere. nsuring they startup with a autocalc set to yes on each session is pretty hard. Any ideas on how to control initial opening of excel would certainly help...
