Greetings! The main workbook for my Excel Macro program is normally about 250
KB in size, and is opened by an Auto_Open macro. It is a macro enabled
workbook containing mostly text strings. But suddenly and without apparent
explanation it increased in size to 700 KB and then a day later to 1295 KB. I
tried to open the 1295 KB file in Excel and after about 20 minutes Excel was
still trying to open the file. So I opened the 700 KB file (took about 6
minutes!) and carefully looked at the data it contained. I did not see any
unexpected or extraneous data. But navigation through the cells was extremely
sluggish. I used an antivirus program and then an anti-spyware program to
scan the 1295 KB file, but neither program found any problems. I should
mention that my computer is running Windows Vista with Service Pack One.
There is 1 GB of RAM and plenty of hard disk space. Excel is the 2007 Home
and Student edition. Any ideas or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I
can email this 1295 KB file to anyone who is interested in seeing it.

May you have a most blessed day!

Sincerely,
