Hi

I have a shared workbook and this formula won't automatically update;
="Welcome"&" "&PROPER(LEFT(username(),FIND(" ",username())-1))&","

So I added this to calculate on open;
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
        sh.Calculate
    Next sh
End Sub

But it still doesn't work. I understand there are limitations with shared workbooks. Is this 1 of them? Is there a way to get this formula to update?

Thank you in advance for your help

Try adding:

Code:
Application.Volatile True

as the first line of the function.
