I have a medium-sized excel 2003 project with several worksheets, some of
them containing data that is imported from several access 2003 querys. In
the beginning everything worked fine, but then I tried to change a cell
reference (from $B1 to $B2) and the worksheet stops automatically calculating
the formula. For example, the cell would read =$B2+$B3, instead of a
numerical value. If I use the "Evaluate Formulae" button on the formula
auditing toolbar it says that "the cell being evaluated contains a constant".
If I go to a new cell and type a simple formula, like =1+1, it has the exact
same problem- the cell reads =1+1, instead of 2. If I highlight the formula
and press F9 if solves correctly, but the formula is replaced by the
solution. If I take a broken cell and fill down with it, relative references
do not change. Existing cells in the same worksheet continue to display
correctly, but if I change them at all they too will become broken, and will
not go back to reading correctly even if I change it back to what it was
before. Cells in other worksheets operate without any problems. Any help on
this problem will be greatly appreciated.
