Setting Formula Calculation Mode of Workbook
Microsoft Excel allows you to set the formula calculation mode, that is, the way formulas are calculated. There are three possible values:
- Automatic - recalculate whenever something is changed, and every time a workbook is opened.
- Automatic except for data tables - recalculate whenever something is changed, but leaving out data tables.
- Manual - recalculate only when the user explicitly requests it by pressing F9 or CTRL+ALT+F9, or when the workbook is saved.
To set the formula calculation mode in Microsoft Excel:
- Select Formulas and then Calculation Options.
- Select one of the options.
Aspose.Cells also allows you to set the Formula Calculation Mode using FormulaSettings.CalculationMode mode property. You can assign it the CalcModeType enumeration which has one of the following values:
- CalcModeType.Automatic
- CalcModeType.AutomaticExceptTable
- CalcModeType.Manual

string dataDir = RunExamples.GetDataDir(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType); | |
// Create a workbook | |
Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); | |
// Set the Formula Calculation Mode to Manual | |
workbook.Settings.FormulaSettings.CalculationMode = CalcModeType.Manual; | |
// Save the workbook | |
workbook.Save(dataDir + "output_out.xlsx", SaveFormat.Xlsx); |
