We're having some issues with our excel files.  I'm an accountant and it's year end and it's very fraustrating.

 

We employe many large excel worksheets for calculating large amounts of data. Many of these worksheets are linked to each other. We tried to refresh our links and recalculate the worksheets but they constantly freeze up and/or crash. Sometimes it takes over an hour to recalculate a file that only took 30 seconds a months ago. We think it might have to do with the fact that our IT department compressed our drive. Can compressing the drive cause major excel issues? And how should I go about fixing it?

There is not likely an easy fix.

If you dont have backups from before the "slowdown" the only real fix (100% sure fire) will be to recreate the files in new spreadsheets.

Whats "large"?

Let's say 12 tabs. 45 rows by 45 columns in each tab and linked to other similar files. Probably total of around 60 excel files but not all connected to one another. I'd say 12mb of data per worksheet max. Some are only 2mb.

If they moved the files when compressing, then the slow down may be from it trying to locate the data. Try reentering the formulas to recreate the data paths. You may also just copy the data into a new excel file, and start again with new uncompressed files. 

 

Please note: I am not an IT person, but I do work with excel quite a bit.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 3 Rd 3 8pm

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I was reading through the thread seeing if someone would mention this. This is exactly what the Canes are doing and Tripp Tracy alluded to it on the Spittin Chiclets podcast when he said Taylor Hall was our Sam Bennett. The Canes and Panthers have always played identical with the main difference being Florida toes the line between physical and dirty. The Canes have stepped up the physical play this year and are inching closer to that line of physical and dirty. If I’m being honest, as a Montreal fan I wouldn’t love the fact that the Canes seem to be targeting Hutson but as a Canes fan I love it because this is what you have to do in the playoffs. Unfortunately for Montreal they aren’t an overly physical team outside of Anderson and Xhekaj; only the Avs, Stars, and Sabres average less hits per game than Canadians in the playoffs. The Canadians can still make this a series if they stop playing scared and turning the puck over simply because they are getting elite goaltending while the Canes are getting average goaltending but if the Habs continue to play with the yips and either Andersen steps up or Dobes regresses then this series could end in five.
