Vista, Onecare. It takes 5 minutes to open a file. Too long.
 

How can I speed up opening Excel files. I never have this problem on my XP
computer. I'm not sure if it is beause of Vista or Onecare. But I do see
running virrus scan in the lower left hand part of the screen.

Vista, Onecare. It takes 5 minutes to open a file. Too long.
 

Disable the virus scan.

I tried dissabeling the onecare virus scan. That doesen't work. I added the
files I use to an exemption list. And I lowered the security level inside
Excel to low. Nothing works.

5 minutes is a long time. is the "virus scan" still being performed
during file open?

Yes. from my desktop whin i click to open the excel file i use everyday the
excel page opens except where the cells normally are the screen is blank or
waiting. At the bottom in the left had column there is a status "runing
virus scan" and the blue ring of death circles for about 5 minutes and then
the file is finally visable.

Figure out where to kill that "virus scan" business, and you should be
home free. There is a "OneCare" forum out there.
