Slow to open /close
Hi all
Just recently I am having problems with Excel, and the speed at which it opens and closes. It can take up to 20 seconds to close. Version is Excel 2000, OS is ME, 256 RAM, 1100 Mhz. All other programs seem normal, have no viruses or malware, and no add-ins checked in Tools Add-ins. It used to open and close like greased lightening, has anyone any ideas? -- George |
Hi George,
Take a look at http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/slowresp.htm particular items such as clearing out your IE cache, making sure you don't have Outlook Journalling (log file) Perhaps you added macros into ThisWorkbook, or an Auto_Open or Auto_close macros. --- HTH, David McRitchie, Microsoft MVP - Excel [site changed Nov. 2001] My Excel Pages: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/excel.htm Search Page: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/search.htm "George Gee" wrote in message ...

Sorry I have taken so long to respond! Thanks for the link. I have read through most of the page, and emptying the C/Windows/Temp folder has made a vast improvement to the speed of Excel. I will make an effort to empty the folder more often! Thanks once again.

Hi George,
Thanks for the feedback, I had quite a few to *.tmp files to clear out on my own system (different directories). "George Gee" wrote in message ... David Sorry I have taken so long to respond!
