That usually means you have a cell that points to a cell that points back to the original cell. Or a cell that points to itself.

I figured it out GW. It was my sisters schedule for work. The company had written this file for her.

Thanks

When the error window popped up you have an option to click "ok" which brings up the help. That's how I figured it out. Come to find out it had a formula ($A$1) for a file that just did scheduling.

I'm just not a winders person. Hence my name. :lol:
