Excel Vslow durin SavePreviewOrPrint. Netwk bcomes v bZ. Any adv?
 

I am running Office 2003 on my Toshiba WinXP P4 Labtop.

Recently noticed my Excel starts to give problem... I didn't know why it
happened.

First, when open or save large file (size), it runs very slowly, sometimes
showed NOT RESPONDING, then after 15-20 seconds, file opened (or saved).

Now, I also notice the slow down whenever I preview or print. During this
action, I noticed the network becomes very busy.

Therefore, I tried disabled network and worked on the same excel files. The
speed of opening, saving, previewing and printing are fast.

Any one there with similar situation and has a solution?
Appreciate your kind advise.

Try closing excel and cleaning up your windows temp folder--it might help and it
can't hurt.

windows start button|Run
%temp%
is a quick way to get there.

And here are a couple of sites that discuss slow performance. The first is by
Charles Williams and the second by David McRitchie:

(I don't recall anything directly on point--but you may find something that
helps.)
