Hi Wayne
Without purchasing anything, Charles Williams does offer a lot of useful
pointers to areas which can slow down performance of the spreadsheet.
If the problem is not specific to any particular workbooks, then maybe you
need to clean up your hard disk and empty the temporary folders. Also,
clearing out the Prefetch folder in Windows often helps (it will rebuild
itself as you use successive programs).
There is a free product called CCleaner, which will carry out these tasks
for you

Hi, Thanks for the advice. I have looked at the site you referenced but
without purchasing something it wasn't vey helpful. Mine is not a
consitant
problem. Some applications work fine but most start of ok and then go to
this
"Sluggish" mode where no matter what function i'm undertaking I have to
wait,
significantly wait, until it completes. How do I optimise or
unchecksomething
in order to enjoy a standard resposne time?

Hi Wayne
there could be a myriad of reasons why the performance is sluggish.
Take a look at Charles Williams site and look through his Optimisation
procedures for speeding up performance.

Hi,
I'm experiancing really sluggish behaviour every time I carry out a
function
when working with Excel 2003. I'm having to wait 30 sec's or more and
it's
infuriating. Can anyone help?
