Re: Disabling Autocalculation when opening CSV files

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



It's worth pointing out that even with manual calculation set you may till
sometimes get a recalc on opening a workbook under certain circumstances. If
the version or build of excel you're using has a different calculation engine
than the file was last saved in is the most common example.

It's not usually an issue for most folks but it's tripped up a couple of my
corporate banking clients big-time where they've been populating data using
an add-in on one box and expecting to rely on cached data elsewhere.

Every time I open a csv file it recalculates every possible formula in my
workbook, taking forever to open it. Is there any way to disable this from
the Excel menu options rather than in VBA?
