Action in Outlook causes 100% CPU in Excel
Hello,
I occasionally run into a weird problem, where an action in one Office application affects another seemingly unrelated Office application. It happened twice today. I had a very large Excel spreadsheet open (around 100 MB - so my computer was already under some duress). In Outlook, I clicked on Forward to forward a small message. Upon so doing, Excel immediately went to 100% CPU and both Excel and Outlook hung. I gave it a lot of time to see if it would fix itself, but it didn't. I eventually killed the Outlook process, but Excel still used 100% CPU. I then had to kill the Excel process. I restarted both applications and (stupidly) did the same thing again - by clicking Forward on the Outlook message. Excel immediately went to 100% CPU and both Excel and Outlook hung. I then killed the Excel process and then Outlook came back to life. I have had this happen before where Office applications seem to "hang" in unison. Often the hanging is just temporary. Does anyone know why doing a small task in Outlook could impact my Excel? Thanks, Shawn -- ---------------------------------------------- Posted with NewsLeecher v3.0 Final * Binary Usenet Leeching Made Easy * http://www.newsleecher.com/?usenet ---------------------------------------------- |
