Dear all,

I have this spreadsheet, packed with yummy formulae and various whistles and bells. The original is 1716k, which is large but acceptable. When filled with user data, it tops out at about 2500k. larger still but still acceptable.

Herewith the problem: I added one more column (for data) and 6 bog-standard formuae to calculate said column, and now the blank worksheet is about 2500k! Should six formulae and an extra column create sucha dramatic increase in file size?

Best,
Max

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
Gah.... Pardon me. I wrote this fogetting I posted last week for a similar issue. I see Oaktree has provided me with a potential solution. Sorry for the waste of time.
