Is there a fix for the slowness in excel 2007?
 

I am about to go back to excel 2002 and dump 2007. It is much slower than
2002. My pc meets all the requirements and I even formatted the disc and
re-installed win xp pro. Is there a fix for this problem? thanks.

There may be ways to improved Excel 2007 performance in specific cases
(e.g., http://www.rondebruin.nl/shape.htm) but it seems that in general
Excel 2007 is half as fast as 2003.

Thanks. I am dumping excel 2007. It's a piece of junk as far as I am
concerned. I'm looking into other products.

In other words, Excel 2007 is a half-fast product <vbg

Seriously, how large are your spreadsheets? I haven't noticed much
difference in speed between versions, but most of the spreadsheets I
work with are small, one screenfull or so.

I don't have any long calcing workbooks although I can easily see when a 2
second calc becomes 4. My performance issues are with long running macros.
I have one that runs for 6 minutes in 2003 and 13 in 2007. Then there's the
issue I linked to in my first message.

Despite what Ron may say, taking this approach (not selecting objects before
editing them) in Classic Excel (97-2003) also results in improved VBA
performance. The improvement in Classic Excel is not as pronounced, but it
is still significant.

His stats bear that out so I don't think he disagrees with you.

This is true, but his stats come a bit further after he says it doesn't
matter in Classic Excel.

I have the same issues at Jon seems to have. If I understand what everyone
has written, there is no fix, 2007 is just half as fast as previous versions?
