What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
if it worked before and suddenly appeared, there is a big chance, that you moved a cell with a formula into a range which is (may be indirectly) referred in this formula.

Check if UnDo (ctrl+Z) is available.
If it is not, step by step analysis of a cell marked as containing error generating formula will be needed. You may use tools like Trace precedents (and possibly trace dependants) from tab Formula, group Formula Auditing
