There's GOT to be something else going on. I created a new file with.xlam extension. Protected the Sheet and Workbook Created a sub called Init with only the line: Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic Created a Workbook_Open sub calling Init.
It worked just fine. I also tried it with an Auto_Open sub, it worked also. So, there must be something else going on. Do you know if it is user-specific or workstation specific? (test it on another PC, and with another user) Can you send me some sample files to test?
