Speed of Excel When Inserting & Deleting Rows
Thanks Matt for all the follow-up and thanks Roger for the solution. I
deleted the Google desktop and the problem seems to be solved. (I am very
impressed with this forum.)

I have my new Vista machine with Excel 2007 on my desk and my old XP PC with
Excel 2002 is pushed aside. The new PC with dual cores, 2 Gb RAM, etc. is
faster in almost every aspect. One exception is inserting and deleting rows
in Excel.
With my old XP/2002 PC, this function is instantaneous. There is not even a
hesitation. With Vista/2007, the aqua, spinning disk appears and there is a
several second hesitation for every insert or delete.
I have all the latest updates and I ran the diagnostics. Everything appears
normal.
So, can it be true that Excel 2007 is just slower? I am creating and editing
spreadsheets every day and the extra seconds are adding up. I wasn't
expecting to take a step backwards in efficiency.
Thanks for any help or thoughts,
