Personal file slows navigation
 

In Excel2000, I always have "Personal" file I keep open that contains
many macros that I use frequently. The problem is that when I navigate
through files ( I use Ctrl-Tab) I get stuck on this file and it takes
up to 30 seconds for it to recover. If I don't have this file open, I
can navigate through the files with no wait. What can I do to speed
this up?

Thanks

Ecel automatocally creates a personal file in the Excel start up directory.
Store all of your macros in here and as it is hidden it wont appear as an
open file.

Hi

you can still access your macros contained in personal.xls with the actual
file hidden (window / hide) - this might speed things up for you.
