Excel Huge File.
 
I have a minor problem. I use Excel 2003 and I work with a specific file that
is 40 megabyte. Everytime I open it, it takes about 1 minute to load.
Apparently, the formulas and functions that are in there keep re-calculating
every time I open. Is there a way I can make it spend less time during the
inialization process/opening file? Thanks.

Set/Save the book's calc mode to Manual. Open it directly.

If you are currently in an Excel session, close/save all open books first,
then open a new book & switch the calc mode to Manual (or ensure that it's at
Manual mode before you click File Open to open this particular book.
