Excel 2007 slow to open 2003 files
When I double-click on an Excel 2003 (.xls) file, Excel 2007 takes a long
time (30 seconds) to open the file. I can avoid this delay by minimizing Excel at which point it immediately maximizes itself and opens the file.

Excel 2007 slow to open 2003 files

..xls files starting opening in Excel 2003 again by default. "Tom" wrote: thanks for the tip, I'm having the exact same problem. Is there a permanent fix for this?

Excel 2007 slow to open 2003 files
Same thing here. Didn't know about the minimize thing but it works. I'll try
filemon and regmon to see if I can find anything weird. It is just really annoying. I first noticed it when I tried to open an attachment from Outlook and thought that was the problem. Then when I saved it to my hard drive, it still took a long time to open. I'll let you know what I find out. "jawodele" wrote: Yet another twist.

Do either of you have any addins installed? I had 2 and when I removed them
both, it started to work like normal. "_-_Goldfinger_-_" wrote: Same thing here. Didn't know about the minimize thing but it works. I'll try filemon and regmon to see if I can find anything weird.

Excel 2007 slow to open 2003 files
What I found out: Open Excel 2007 first, then use CTRL+O to OPEN the needed
file. In my case newer and older Excel files are experiencing the 30 second wait... -- ~Myst~ "_-_Goldfinger_-_" wrote: Do either of you have any addins installed?
