I have a formula in a cell on a non-active sheet. &nbsp;It has a formula in it that gets it's data from the active sheet. &nbsp;ie: ='Mysheet1'!A1<br />
When I set up each sheet, I formatted the rows autofit. &nbsp;When I enter text data in the referenced cell in the active sheet and that data is too long to fit in the cell, it makes the row taller so that all the text can be seen in the cell. &nbsp;But when I go and look at the non-active sheet, I see that the row height has not changed to accommodate the text.<br />
<br />
How can I make it do this?<br />
<br />
Right now, I've got a work-around that is not optimal. &nbsp;When I activate the sheet with the cell that contains the formula, I capture that sheet's Activate event and autofit the rows, but this has a flashing effect. &nbsp;Even when I disable events, calcs and screen updating. &nbsp;If it didn't clash, this would probably be ok.<br />
<br />
How can I do this and not get that flashing effect?

In Excel 2010, how can I make a row on a non-active sheet autofit when a cell in that row changes it's value due to a formula referencing the active sheet?

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.
