In one of my workbooks I have two worksheets with this
problem which occurs using either copy & paste or fill: I
have a formula in one cell that I want to copy to an
adjacent cell and calculate the new result for that cell.
Excel copies the formula correctly but instead of
calculating the new value for the 2'nd cell it merely
copies the value frome the 1'st cell. Is there a setting I
can change to copy the formula and calculate the new value?

Excel has nothing to do with windows XP and your question should be posted
to the microsoft.public.excel newsgroup. But if you want to copy formulas,
when you do the paste do a "paste special" and you will see that formulas is
a choice.
