SUMMARY
With manual calculation selected, when Calculate Now is chosen from the Options menu, Microsoft Excel recalculates all open documents.

In Excel version 2.20 or later, to recalculate just the active document, hold the SHIFT key down, and choose Calculate Document from the Options menu.

In previous versions of Excel, you cannot calculate just the active document; these versions of Excel calculate all open documents when Calculate Now is chosen.
