I just got a new laptop with windows 7 and when I click the file open icon in excel 2010, the entire spreadsheet locks up. It sounds like this could be an add-on issue. The only add-on I have is pdf filemaker. Once I am locked up, I have to kill excel through the task manager. Has anyone else come across this issue?

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
I have been looking on-line as well and just found the suggestion of changing my default printer to Microsoft XPS document writer. I have no idea what the default printer has to do with opening a file; however, it seems to be working. {knock on wood}
