I am running some pretty big files on Excel 2007 (20MB) and anytime I ask it to do any calculations, including filtering, it freezes, fades to a foggy white, and says Not Responding.

If I give it a few minutes, it usually recovers, then calculates as expected.

Has anybody else had experience with this -- any suggestions as to how to fix?




System:
Windows 7 Ultimate, Service Pack 1
32-Bit Operating System

Intel Core i5 CPU, 560 @2.67Ghz

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
