Compress file to a smaller size without using 3rd party applicatio
My purpose is to send a very large Excel file via email (about 10MB), but it
takes to way too long to send it and some time it didn't even go through. So my question is, is there a way to compress the size of the file to send via email? I don't really trust 3rd party online application, so... Anyway, I'm also suspicious that I didn't something wrong with my spreadsheet that cause it to be so large in size. The spreadsheet has columns all across to BH and it has about 40 rows. Basically almost each cell has a formula. There are a total of 4-5 sheets. Is it normal for the spreadsheet to be so big for the information I gave above? Thanks for any help. |

If you're using WinXP or higher it comes with a compression utility.
In Win Explorer, right click the file name. Select Send toCompressed (zipped) Folder. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Neon520" wrote in message ...

On any sheet hit CTRL + End
Where does Excel take you? If far below and/or right of your last known data you should reset the used range on each sheet. Excel lotsa times overestimates for any number of reasons.
