Excel Files Open Slow
I used to use WinME with Office 2000. When I'd open an excel file it
would be slow due to a request for a virus scan. There was a fix for this that in made a change to the registry. It was "regsvr32 /u c:\program files\norton antivirus\officeav.dll" I am now using WinXP and the slow opening is again with me. When I enter the command in the start/run window I get a response it cannot find regsvr32. Can anyone help me with this problem. I want to stop the virus scan on open. Thanks, Don Jacobs |
You definitely should have that program in your WINDOWS\system32 folder.
You might try entering the full path: c:\WINDOWS\system32\regsvr32.exe /u c:\program files\norton antivirus\officeav.dll I assume the Norton program was installed on the new OS in the same path as the old. -- Jim Rech Excel MVP "Donald Jacobs" wrote in message ...
