How do you get spreadsheet data in Excel to recalculate itself from within VBA, without the kluge of just changing a cell value?
Automatically refresh data at regular intervals Click a cell in the external data range. On the Data tab, in the Connections group, click Refresh All, and then click Connection Properties. Click the Usage tab. Select the Refresh every check box, and then enter the number of minutes between each refresh operation.
You can also press Ctrl+Alt+F5 anywhere in the workbook. This command not only refreshes data connections, it also refreshes all pivot tables (which are a form of data connection).
VBA code: Only recalculate selected cells in ExcelPress the F5 key to run the code, then the selected formula cells are recalculated immediately.
The following lines will do the trick:
ActiveSheet.EnableCalculation = False ActiveSheet.EnableCalculation = True
Edit: The .Calculate()
method will not work for all functions. I tested it on a sheet with add-in array functions. The production sheet I'm using is complex enough that I don't want to test the .CalculateFull()
method, but it may work.
