Hi, I'm having a problem with my spreadsheets and no-one else seems to have mentioned it, so perhaps it is just me...

I have a lot of similar data to analyse so I have created several template spreadsheets with many different equations in different 'Set Values' column headers. Most, but not all, are set to recalculate automatically. However, sometimes - for no reason that I have pinned down - although the recalculate option still says 'Auto', the data is as though the 'none' option has been checked - i.e. deleting or changing any source data range does not affect the output column data. The green padlock disappears from the column header too. At this point I can't seem to make it recalculate at all, instead I am reloading earlier version of the project before the autos stopped working. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Ah - just found the answer, and it was me being stupid after all. That new 'formulas' label bar that appears? I was getting annoyed with it, so instead of going to 'edit column label rows' I was just... deleting it. Don't do that.

Yes. Delete the row deletes the formula. You can tell it by checking if there is green lock in the column header.

Just FYI, a quicker way to hide F(x) row:
Right click the window title or any gray area in worksheet and then choose View: context menu and uncheck F(x)

Thanks, Snow
