Excel 2003 file sizes
Have a large excel file that I need to reduce. Have removed data and
links/macros but the file size has grown. Is there anyway to compress/repair the file ? |

Thanks for that message but it hasn`t made any difference to the size. I`m
sure i`m missing something obvious here !

When you use Ctrl-End on a worksheet it select the last row with data ?
Have you save/close the file after you follow the steps ? -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl "Simon" wrote in message ...

I had done this anyway. But went through the steps again and it still didn`t
work. It actually made the file grow again ! Bizarre. "Ron de Bruin" wrote: When you use Ctrl-End on a worksheet it select the last row with data ?

Maybe the file is corrupt ?
Try to copy all sheets to a new workbook and see how big that file is.? If this not help you can zip the file and send it to me private if it is not to big<g and I look at it for you. -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl "Simon" wrote in message ...
