Excel is not updating cells options formula workbook calculation set to automatic

Question

The usual answer to this question is to turn formulas to automatic   This  in my case  is not working    The second usual answer is that there is some macro that is affecting the Excel settings   This is not the case with my problem  xlsx file    Office 2010  my simple formula is not updating   The formula is     IFERROR TRIM OFFSET MainCopy AG 3  A77 0         Everything else is updating in the spreadsheet   The cell in MainCopy has the correct value   The value displayed is the value before I updated the information on MainCopy   When I put new information in MainCopy  the value on this page stayed the same   I have    Researched this issue on the internet - all solutions easy to find do not address this problem Pressed F9  did nothing  Pressed Shift-F9  did nothing  Turned calculation to manual and hit all combinations of F9  did nothing  Turned calculation back to automatic  did nothing  Saved with a new name  did nothing  Re-updated data on MainCopy  did nothing  Selected the cell and hit F9  did nothing  Put my cursor in the box and hit enter  UPDATED VALUE CORRECTLY    I cannot put my cursor in each box and hit enter  there are too many boxes   In addition  this is creating a major error trap in a spreadsheet that needs to be correct   Is there some obscure setting that has been triggered in this file that is creating this issue

I had this happen in a worksheet today  Neither F9 nor turning on Iterative Calculation made the cells in question update  but double-clicking the cell and pressing Enter did  I searched the Excel Help and found this in the help article titled Change formula recalculation  iteration  or precision         CtrlAltF9    Recalculate all formulas in all open workbooks  regardless of whether they have changed since the last recalculation    CtrlShiftAltF9    Check dependent formulas  and then recalculate all formulas in all open workbooks  regardless of whether they have changed since the last recalculation       So I tried CtrlShiftAltF9  and sure enough  all of my non-recalculating formulas finally recalculated
