File size increases when using Microsoft Open XML Converter
We frequently receive invitations to tender in Excel-files. These are often
..xlsx-files. We use Excel 2003, and the converter is therefore used to open the documents. This works most of the time, but occasionally the file size grows dramatically when we save it (in 2003-format), typically from 5-600 kb to 30-50Mb. Any ideas, anyone? |
