Subtotal has stopped working

[Tim Mc]

Can anyone tell me why my subtotal function would have stopped working?

I have tried it in a number of different worksheets, but the total (function
9) doesn't recalculate when I put a filter on.

First time this has happened to me ever.

Help!

Tim

Perhaps Tools>Options>Calculation has been turned to "Manual".

Try "Automatic".

If it has been turned to manual............

Tools>Options>Calculation can be Auto or Manual.

Excel takes the Calculation mode each session from the settings on the first
workbook opened in that session.

i.e. If you saved Book1 with calc mode in manual and opened it first, calc
mode would be in Manual.

If you saved Book2 with calc mode in auto and opened it after Book1, Book2
would be in manual mode(Excel ignores the auto calc mode in this case).

If you close Book1 before opening Book2, Book2 will be in auto calc mode.

Confusing enough? <g>

NOTE: if you are loading Personal.xls and its settings are at "manual",
change this to "Automatic" and re-save Personal.xls.

Hi Gord -

My worksheet is on "Automatic". but the formula still does not work. Any
other solutions?

Thank you, Kelley

I had the same problem and changed it to manual and it worked - backwards
from the correct setting?
