Default File size...

Howdie...

I have a small workbook (3sheets) that uses advanced filter to copy and
paste data from sheet A to Sheet C.

The total list of data in sheet A is just 10 lines, and my filter
selects and copies two lines of this to a sheet c, but yet my file size
is 4 megs.
Sheets A and Sheets C are the big ones (If I delete them file size
drops) but as they contain hardly any data I dont know why...

Any macros or ideas that I can do to solve the problem... are most
welcome...

Regards

D

in sheet A, do Edit=Goto=special and select last cell.

If you go way past row 10, then that is your problem. You need to go to the
namebox, then type in

11:65536 and hit enter. Then Edit=Delete

Repeat in Sheet C. Now save the workbook.

these resets the number of Cells Excel is maintaining detailed information
on.
