Message: [QUOTE="Woody, post: 2928045"] The problem below is something that I've just found out about and would like to know why it's happening. I had a tidy workbook with the MATCH option in place and this worked efficiently to produce a schedlue (Yep Thanks Bob Umlas it's your basic design from 2001). I have a worksheet with approx 3,000 job codes and each has about 30 associated fields i.e. price, time, purchased, acount code which in the main are between 1 and 35 chars. I was recently upgraded to Office 2003 in mid February, and this file has grown from 3mb to over 6mb with no increase in data content. I have copied the file and applied to my home system with resuolts even after stripping out 98% of the data tha used for the MATCH process. This is most concerning as it is taking >2hrs to download via the company'e netwrk so not very productive at all. Please would someone suggest what couold be done to overcome this ? TIA [/QUOTE]
