Excel is "frosting"
Hi,
I'm working with Excel 2003. When I'm working on a specific document that I've copied and paste informations from the Net (FedEx), it was just text, no hyperlink or images, this document won't save after 35 minutes that I'm working on it. If I save every 15 minutes, it will work but after 35 minutes, it said "Not Responding" and I have to close Excel. I have the recover document but it always misses the latest changes that I've made. I've lost 2 hours and a half on that, I had 935 rows of text, I've deleted about 800 of them but it won't change a thing. It seems that it's not Excel, I've tried other documents, changing stuff and save after an hour and it works well. So, my best guess is that the document has something but what ????????? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks |

Excel is "frosting"
When I copy text from a web page, I notice a lot of "overhead" comes
along with the data: fonts, some formatting, etc. I can only guess this may be causing the problem. As a test, the next time you copy some data, paste it into Notepad first: all overhead will be stripped out, and only the text will remain. Then copy from Notepad into the clipboard, and paste into Excel from there. I hope this works out for you! |
