Hello all,

I have a Dbase in excel 2007. there are 30,000 rows and 15 columns of
numeric data. I am running several (6) reports from the Dbase in the
same workbook. My calc is set to manual.

It is getting slow. QUESTION: Would it speed up if my reports are
each in (6) different workbooks thus updating only 1 report a ta time
or will Excel update the links in the closed workbooks too?

Excel does not update links in closed workbooks. It is done when the workbook
is opened next time.
