After opening several spreadsheets in the same Excel program - they freeze.
Can't input, toggle between sheets and all softward headers (file edit etc)
are grayed out. When I close one spreadsheet they all close. (Yes I selected
the right X - but it doesn't hurt to ask). Task manager shows them running
normally.

Thoughts??

How big are the workbooks?
How much RAM do you have?
In Task Manager's performance tab, is the CPU stuck at 100%?
