Default Copy / Paste extremely slow

Excel is pausing for a very long time during copy/paste. It takes 10+ seconds
to copy a single cell (text only), and another 10+ to paste. It is as if
Excel (or another program) is performing another task in between. Thoughts?

It could be recalculating. Set the calculation to MANUAL to see.

Tools - Options - Calculation - MANUAL

Thanks for the response - unfortunately, there are no formulas in the
spreadsheet, and no other spreadsheets open...

What's the source of the data? Internet?

It is a CSV from Quicken - I downloaded an Office update this morning which
appears to have solved the problem.
