Add-In File Size Growing Inexplicably
I've noticed that the size of my add-in (.xla) has been steadily growing,
although the amount of code and number objects contained within the add-in has not. I believe that what is happening is that objects that I create and then delete are not really getting removed from the file. In particular, I create a temporary worksheet in the add-to store data which I bind to a ListBox control. I delete this worksheet after the ListBox control is closed. This reminds me of something that happens to Outlook Personal Folders files (.pst). When you delete something from a .pst file, such as old emails, they don't actually get removed from the .pst file unto you compact it. Compacting occurs automatically under certain circumstances, but there is a way to do it manually. Does anyone happen to know if there is a way to "compact" an add-in file? Or is there some other explanation? Thanks for your help. |
