For no apparent reason I have encountered problems with excel formulas. Instead of dragging formulas across columns, my speadsheets are copying information only. Also, summed columns of figures are not updating when changed, neither are linked cells. Can anyone suggest a solution, please. The problem is happening on old and new spreadsheets, which leads me to think there may be a problem with my program

Cheers, Janet

Thanks for the suggestion. Found out that part of the problem was with the tools options. The calculation tab had reset itself to manual operation.
Cheers, Janet
