Excel workbook crashed
Hi
I was happily working away on a workbook yesterday when I tried to use a conditional formatting on a rather large range. This caused the workbook to crash and now when ever I open it the workbook gets stuck and won't load completely. Does anyone know of anyway opening the book with calculating, or any other measure that might enable me to open the workbook. I am using excel 97 on windows nt platform. TIA |

calculating, ... Presume you mean open with calculation set to manual? Try opening Excel an empty book first Switch the calc mode to manual via: Tools Options Calculation tab Manual OK Then open your book in this same Excel session via say File Open The prevailing calc mode i.e. Manual, will be applied on your book. -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- GMT+8, 1° 22' N 103° 45' E xdemechanik <atyahoo<dotcom ---- "Edgar Thoemmes" wrote in message ...

Hi
I tried this method and the workbook still won't open. Is there a way you can open Excel in 'safe mode'? Thanks "Edgar Thoemmes" wrote: Hi I was happily working away on a workbook yesterday when I tried to use a conditional formatting on a rather large range.
