Excel extreamly slow opening spreadsheets
I have 3 computers with Office 2003 that are experiancing extream delays when
opening excel spreadsheets. These documents are located on the users local HD. If I open excel and then open the document it opens fine. If I double click on the document it takes anout 30 seconds to open excel and another 20 seconds to populate the information. I have searched all over the internet for this issue and have found that others are experiancing this...but I have not found a solution. Anyone have any ideas? |

Excel extreamly slow opening spreadsheets
How big are the workbooks? If they're very large, it could slow save/open
operations. If the files are linked to each other or other spreadsheets, updating in the background will take time. Is there a lot of code working in the background because this can also slow things down. hth -- Traa Dy Liooar Jock "Jaymee" wrote: I have 3 computers with Office 2003 that are experiancing extream delays when opening excel spreadsheets.

Excel extreamly slow opening spreadsheets
Are these 3 of many computers and the others do not experience the problem,
or doe they all have it? If you have Add-ins attached to Excel, it takes time for each to load when starting Excel.......if you have something in the XLStartup directory, that takes time to load also.

Excel extreamly slow opening spreadsheets
Most of the spreadhseets are around 100 KB...so they are small. I can sent it
to another machine and it opens fine. No Add-ins that I can tell. "CLR" wrote: Are these 3 of many computers and the others do not experience the problem, or doe they all have it?

Excel extreamly slow opening spreadsheets
Ok then, it seems that it is someting with only these three machines. To
check the Add-ins, do Tools Addins and look to see if any boxes are checked. Navigate to the XLStart directory to see if any .xls files are there. Then, if it's possible, swap out the entire computer with one that works ok....if the problem moves accordingly, then it's definitely within those 3 computers. Worse case might mean an Excel re-install. Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Jaymee" wrote: Most of the spreadhseets are around 100 KB...so they are small.
