Excel 2002: Need to speed up calculation and response time
 

Dear Sir,

Currently I am using Excel 2002 running on Window 2000 Server Terminal
Services client. The server is using Intel Xeon processors.

Frequently I need to work on formula intensive files. I noticed that as the
number of formulas a pages increases, the calculation speed slow down
significantly. At time it takes up to 10 seconds for recalculation to be
completed.

The responses time for saving, copying, pasting and other function also has
noticeable decline.

As our corporation still intend to use Excel 2002 for many years to come, I
would appreciate very much if MS could upgrade the performance by an
additional service pack to Excel 2002 or Window 2000 Server OS.

This could help the users to maintain good productivity level at work
especially dealing with large formula intensive files.

Many thanks

Low

Both are past end of life cycle. Not supported any more.
