Hello,
At work, most users have migrated from Office 2003 to Office 2010 except 2 related groups who have yet to adjust, then test all sorts of Excel 2003 files (with macros, links, queries, etc.) to work correctly under Excel 2010.
Since the Outlook messages of the users moving between PCs with Office 2003 and 2010 were getting corrupt, Outlook 2010 was also installed for Office 2003 users in anticipation.
Unfortunately, since then, when using Excel 2003 with Outlook 2010 open, we see 2 instances of the Clipboard (one for each version) appear and everything is duplicated (in the clipboard).
When an Excel macro is running and uses the clipboard, Outlook is frozen for a while and a macro which usually ran 2 minutes and 15 seconds, now takes over 6 minutes.
Other files also take much longer to run, but the final result is correct, no corrupt data... just a huge waste of time!
I have tried modifying the AcbControl to "1" in the Office 11 & 14 "Common", then "General" registry folders as per the Microsoft Office dual Clipboard issue instructions, but it doesn't help.
Any ideas on how to resolve this issue would be really appreciated as it will be a while before all our Excel templates can be checked for 2010 compliance...
Rgds,
