I just switched to Windows 7 and one thing that is bothering me is that when
I have multiple workbooks open, there is a slight lag in switching between
them. This is a new Windows 7 thing and is not detrimental to my work, but
bothers me. Is there a way to speed up the transition time between open
workbooks?

MS wants us all to slow down and enjoy the interface...

You have an old video adapter?

how are you switching, using the window menu item or the taskbar?

anyway in win 7, try this:
right click my computer and choose properties/advanced system settings or
control panel/system
on the advanced tab, under performance click settings

i uncheck the first 3, fade or slide menus into view, slide open combo boxes
and smooth scroll list boxes.

i do not see the behavior you're seeing and was on the win7 beta team since
day 1.

i want the os as snappy as can be, that's why i disable the fluff. who needs
that garbage?

if, via the taskbar, post back and i'll give other instructions.
