My xls file is getting too large to email. I looked into every section of
http://www.contextures.on.ca/xlfaqApp.html#Unused over and over again, but
still did not find any useful info about locating the unwanted object and
deleting it to reduce the file size. Where exactly is the item I should read?
Desparately,
Michael

Debra has explained it quite well IMO.
Prevention? Depends upon your updating methods which could could leave large
ranges that are empty but Excel still thinks of them as part of the "used
range".
As far as your request for "Pls no links"...........Links to good information
and instructions are a useful tool.
If you don't wish to take the time to go to the suggested link(s) then you will
miss out out on a great deal of assistance in these news groups.
