Excel Slow to Respond ON FIRST CLICK into the application

[bellg]

Hi,

Sometimes when I toggle from other applications into Excel, it takes a couple seconds for Excel to respond to the initial click.

This only happens on the initial click into Excel. After that it works fine. This issue isn't limited to one file, either. It seems to happen to all of the files that I try to use, but I can't recreate the conditions of exactly when it happens on command. If I wait a while before toggling back into Excel, that seems to cause it; I don't know why, though.

Has anyone else run into this problem? What did you find out? How do I fix it? Your help is certainly appreciated!

Thanks,
Greg

I find this happens when I launch Excel and the first time I run any macros... it hangs for a second or two. But then I can run the macro again any number of times and it's lightning quick.

Never got to the bottom of it, but at least you know it's not just you

Thanks, it's slightly comforting to know that I'm not suffering alone
