Similar problem. Excel files were done in Office 2000. Used Excel 2007, but
the option where it gives you "Save as 93-2007 workbook." Now, most files take forever to load. Uninstalled 2007, reinstalled 2000, thinking that should solve the problem. It doesn't. Even files that were NEVER opened using Excel 2007 take forever to load. Interestingly, however, files that are small don't take any time. But most of my files are around 6000 mb. It also takes forever to save them. Clearly, the problem must be independent of the version of excel one is running. What is going on? I have contacted Micrsoft about this, but they are still trying to find a solution.

6000 mb? That's 6 GB. That will take more than a second to 2 to save. I'm
surprized you can even load the file. Tyro "lindalou" wrote in message ... Similar problem. Excel files were done in Office 2000.

What firewall, anti-virus application or security suite is installed? There
are some that cause problems which do not appear immediately. "lindalou" wrote in message ... Similar problem. Excel files were done in Office 2000.
