Hi again,

While trying to save an Excel file that I have been working on today, I
sense that there is difficulty in saving the file to my C drive . The
saving "progress bar" slows around the third of the way almost to a stop,
then something kicks in, and the file is saved (not a big file). I can save
the file 5 times in a row, and it still slows up at the same area. Soon
after, I try copying a formula to other cells, then when I try to save ,
Excel crashes.

I tried copying the file on a "keyring", but had similar results

I wonder if the problem stems from a corrupt area on my disk, an illegal
formula (?) in my file, a virus, or something else?
Is there a checklist that one can examine to understand why this problem
occurs?

How can I overcome this problem? very frustrating!

André
