When you have a circular reference in Excel, it means that a formula is referring to the cell that the formula itself is in. Unfortunately, Excel cannot calculate this type of formula because it creates an infinite loop.

If you are confident that your circular reference will eventually stabilize, you can enable iterative calculations in Excel. This feature allows Excel to repeatedly calculate a formula until a specific criteria is met, such as a maximum number of iterations or a specific level of accuracy.

To enable iterative calculations in Excel, follow these steps:

1. Click on the "File" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
2. Click on "Options" at the bottom of the menu on the left-hand side.
3. Click on "Formulas" in the menu on the left-hand side.
4. Check the box next to "Enable iterative calculation."
5. Adjust the values for "Maximum Iterations" and "Maximum Change" to meet your specific needs.
6. Click "OK" to save your changes.

Please note that enabling iterative calculations should be done with caution, as it can lead to incorrect results or slow down your calculations. It is also recommended to review and adjust the formula to avoid circular references where possible.
