Calculate Formulas Before Export

The default calculation mode for a Workbook is Manual. This mode implies that the Spreadsheet does not recalculate formulas before it generates an HTML file. Call the Workbook.Calculate or Workbook.CalculateFull method to calculate all formulas in the workbook before you export it to HTML.
