Out of Memory
I recently purchased a new Dell computer with 2 gig of RAM. I have two large
Excel files that I need to have open simultaneously. I can open these at work on a machine that has only 512 meg of RAM but I can't open them on my new machine. I am using Office 2000. I keep getting an error message that says that I am out of memory. Then, I downloaded the trial version Office 2003. I can open the files but my macros very very very slowly. I believe that something on my PC is configured improperly but I don't know. Does anyone have any suggestions. I would probably purchase the upgrade but I would like to correct any misconfiguration first. |

Hi Rob,
It is very difficult to track down such problems as you probably know. Make sure that you have the latest maintenance for your Excel 2003. Take a look at http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/slowresp.htm and at links within, particularly Charles William's website, one of his pages is http://www.decisionmodels.com/optspeed.htm website is best viewed in Firefox if you have it, but the separate unconventional (though I like the spell check uncongenial suggestion better) scrollers do appear to be working now in IE though still wasteful of space. --- 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 "Rob" wrote in message ...
