Hi,

I am learning VB2005 and I've created a basic program that creates an
Excel spreadsheet and then closes the program leaving the Excel
spreadsheet active.


The program works great when I have visual studio open but when that
is closed and I run it from the exe (in the release folder) the
program takes forever and I have to press ""Alt + tab" to get the
program to work.


Am I doing something fundementally wrong?


Thank you in advance (and apologies if this is really basic!)


Best
