Thank you Niek. I've opened and reclosed several times. I've even rebooted
and run defrag. I'm using Excel 2003. This is truly odd. I've never had
this kind of problem before.

Sounds strange. But if you import large amounts of data, delete and insert
many rows, etc, Excel may get a little bit slow. Close the file and re-open.
BTW you don't happen to use anything older than Excel97 do you?

Gack. I do need help. The spreadsheet is slow again. I can't even
scroll
without it locking up for 20 seconds or more.

Nevermind everyone. I found another item about slow performance and went
in
and manually deleted everything out of my temp file. The spreadsheet is
working fine now.

Hi all,

I'm working with a spreadsheet that has 12 workbooks in it. There are
no
macros or formulas. The problem is, everything I try to do is very
slow and
I'm often getting not responding messages. This is the only spreadsheet
that
I'm having problems with, every other spreadsheet I'm using, even ones
with
macros and formulas, are working fine.

I've looked through some troubleshooting things here and one pointed me
to
disconnecting from a non-existant drive. I did that, and it helped a
little.
But opening, saving, adjusting column widths and print preview are
very slow.

Any ideas?

Kristi
