Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while. I just got back from 10
weeks in New York.

I'm not sure if I've understood your problem necessarily, but Excel 2007 is
multi-threaded and, depending on how it is configured and how the
dependencies between your spreadsheet cells are organised, will divide
built-in function recalculation between the number of threads configured.
With a dual-processor machine, 2 threads will be given roughly equal
processor time. There is no straighforward way of doing this with earlier
versions unless you can split your processing between 2 workbooks each in
its own running instance of Excel.

Hi. I work with a lot of numbers, not hard math operations, but a very
large
amount of numbers. Is there any way to use both cores of my Core 2 Duo
processor in order to speed my programs up?

Thanks a lot 4 your help.
