= SUMMARY =

The words that appear on the status line in the Works Spreadsheet are defined as follows:

Calc - This message appears when a spreadsheet needs to be calculated. To turn off Automatic Calculation, choose the Manual Calculation command. When the Manual Calculation command is in effect, formulas are not updated until you choose the Calculate Now command or press the F9 key.

Circ - This message appears when a circular reference exists during calculation. To correct a circular reference, change one of the formulas included in the circle. As soon as the circular reference is corrected, “Circ” disappears from the status line.

Point - This message appears when you are in Point mode. Point mode lets you insert a reference into the formula by using the arrow keys to select the desired cells. Using Point mode is an easy way to add cell references when you are creating a formula.

Edit - This message appears when you are in Edit mode.

Extend - This message appears when you have pressed the F8 key to extend a selection. You can also hold down the SHIFT key and press the arrow keys to extend the selection range. Press the F8 key to turn off Extend mode.
