File Size
Please note that this is not your typical file size question. I have a macro-enabled Excel 2007 file that varies in size from 15-100Mb depending on how much data I populate it with. Every day, in order to email this file out, I alter it by doing the following: Select all tabs (11 in all). Select all cells Copy/Paste Values Delete 5 of the tabs Save as a new Excel Workbook (not macro enabled) The new file size is now roughly 600Kb. However, all of a sudden, the changed file is about 2Mb. I made sure to delete all the excess rows/columns. I deleted the one macro that I have stored in the file. I looked for any objects that might be on the sheets (there were none). I deleted the tabs, one at a time, to see if I could figure out which tab is causing the issue. Eventually, I deleted all the tabs (had to insert a new blank one to ensure that there was at least one tab). The end cell on the new blank tab is A1. There are no hidden sheets. The file size is still 1.7Mb! If I copy my used cells/sheets into a new workbook the file size is about 500Kb. Obviously there is something wrong with the file. Any thoughts as to what is causing it? I'd rather not recreate the full file. Thanks for any help you can provide!

The original has about 5 PivotTables that ultimately get valued-out. Where/How would I find the PivotTable cache? There are about 50 named ranges. However, since everything is valued-out, there are no more formulas that refer to them.

Ok. I just deleted the defined names and the file is back down to 400Kb! I didn't think just naming a range would affect a file like that. Especially after everythign gets valued-out and isn't used anymore. THANK YOU!!!

Excel 2007 painfully slow to open files

Excel Image not displayed when the physical file is N/A
Hello there, I'm having a problem on images that's generated from excel. I'm using the url method to generate the excel file and I'm aware that the images are stored in a physical location and the images won't be able to be displayed if the physical file is not available. I'm able to display the images out when the excel report is generated; however, when we save it as the default xls extension file, and open it in another location, the images are not displayed, as only the physical file path is being stored in the excel file. I've tested it on a c...

How to properly transfer an outlook.pst file?
For years I have struggled with "transferring" Outlook's .pst file, e.g., when doing a complete re-install of Windows or when a client buys a new PC and wants their Outlook data transferred from their backup files. Invariably something gets botched up and this usually means I have to spend hours trying to resolve the mess created. I am assuming there must be a proper way to do this and obviously I'm not doing it. What I'm hoping for is that someone will provide a step-by-step procedure that WORKS. My general practice has been to install Office, open Outlook and cre...

Looking for Microsoft Office Binary File Format or File Signature data
I have an application which obtains numerous "unidentifiable" files with no file extension, via FTP, and would like to run some sort of binary filter on it to identify PPT, DOC, XLS file formats. I did fine this: http://www.garykessler.net/library/file_sigs.html But it seems a messy way of accomplishing this, and is incomplete. Any clues as to finding the binary record format and/or file signatures of Office documents (Office 2000 and greater). - Thanks ...
