As an example, I just ran the macro shown below on 6 worksheets that averaged 40 rows and 21 columns of information. What starts out as a workbook with much less than 1MB of data, turns out to be over 8MB of data. Is there anything that pops out to you experts (besides my sloppy code) which could be improved?

Thanks!

Code:
Sub Glendale_Format()

    Dim lastrow As Integer
    Dim lastrow2 As Integer
    lastrow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 0
    lastrow2 = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
    lastrow3 = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 2
    lastrow5 = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 4
    lastrow6 = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 5

Using a mouse in Excel is the work equivalent of wearing a lanyard when you first get to college
I am guessing that your file size is getting big due to the insertion of the formulae in the section that is as listed below:
Range("H4:H5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[17]="""","""",RC[17]/RC[24])"
Range("I4:I5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[16]="""","""",RC[16]/RC[-7])"
Range("J4:J5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[16]="""","""",RC[16]/RC[22])"
Range("K4:K5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[15]="""","""",RC[15]/RC[-9])"
Range("L4:L5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[15]="""","""",RC[15]/RC[20])"
Range("M4:M5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[14]="""","""",RC[14]/RC[-11])"
Range("N4:N5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[14]="""","""",RC[14]/RC[18])"
Range("O4:O5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[13]="""","""",RC[13]/RC[-13])"
Range("P4:P5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[13]="""","""",RC[13]/RC[16])"
Range("Q4:Q5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[12]="""","""",RC[12]/RC[-15])"
Range("R4:R5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[12]="""","""",RC[12]/RC[14])"
Range("S4:S5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[11]="""","""",RC[11]/RC[-17])"
Range("T4:T5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[11]="""","""",RC[11]/RC[12])"
Range("U4:U5000").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[10]="""","""",RC[10]/RC[-19])"

I may have missed something, but it doesn't appear that there is a delete statement if the values are empty or zero. If I am right, you should be able to go to one of the cells in these columns and see the formula in the edit bar, even thought there is no value displayed. - i.e. go to R100 and see if there is a formula there.

I typed in just your formula for column H with no values anywhere else, and copied it from H4 to H5000. This resulted in the file size going from 14K to over 300K.

Hope this helps.

it did help, thank you. i was able to reduce it by quite a bit. i should probably look to make it so the range is not hard coded as well.
