Slow worksheets after upgrade?

Hi there,

We have a worksheet with a lot of formulas in which works at a normal speed in 2003, but in 2007 is painfully painfully slow...it even 'draws' all the rows in front of your eyes!

We have tried a repair of the file, and also saving it out as a .xlsx instead of .xls

Any further suggestions would be greatfully received!

Thanks

Hi James

Thanks for the question

This could have a number of possible solution, and it is hard to be specific without seeing the file. There is one posible solution that is beyond thescope of the forum, but I enclose a link that details the steps you need to follow to implement this

Hope this helps

Thanks for this, but sadly this hasn't helped.

I'd be happy to send the file itself if that was of use, but would not be able to post it publically.

Thanks again,
James

Hi James

Sorry for the delay in responding, but I have been on leave.

Feel free to send me the workbook, and I will take a look at it.

My email is sw@stl-training.co.uk

Excel tip:

Adding up rows or columns without seeing formulas

Highlight a column or row and click the Autosum button. This gives you your answer without showing the formula.
