Default Excel CPU Usage

Very good point. I'd been thinking along the lines of "there is some
problem", while you have thought about "things may be working properly - but
the file itself has changed".

Check the size of the excel file. I recently saw one of mine that has the share
workbook facility on grow from 2 MB to 76 MB. When I turned off Sharing and
opened and closed the document it shrank back to just under 2MB. The effect of
having 70MB opening was a long delay in opening and closing the file.

I have computer that has Windows 2000 with Excel 2000. When the user closes
excel, the CPU usage spikes between 70 and 100%. It stays that way for
about 15 seconds.

After you close Excel, you can't open up anything because the CPU is being
taxed.

This only started about 2 weeks ago and it only does it with Excel.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jasper
