Getting Excel to refresh data on sheet from within VBA

Question

How do you get spreadsheet data in Excel to recalculate itself from within VBA, without the kluge of just changing a cell value?

Answer 1

After a data connection update, some UDF's were not executing. Using a subroutine, I was trying to recalcuate a single column with:

Sheets("mysheet").Columns("D").Calculate

But above statement had no effect. None of above solutions helped, except kambeeks suggestion to replace formulas worked and was fast if manual recalc turned on during update. Below code solved my problem, even if not exactly responsible to OP "kluge" comment, it provided a fast/reliable solution to force recalculation of user-specified cells.

Application.Calculation = xlManual
DoEvents
For Each mycell In Sheets("mysheet").Range("D9:D750").Cells
    mycell.Formula = mycell.Formula
Next
DoEvents
Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
