Hello All,

I have an 11MB workbook in "xlb" file format.

File functions fairly well (full calculation rebuild takes approx. 4 seconds) but becomes completely unresponsive when a specific sheet is selected, and Excel must be closed in Task Manager.

This particular sheet contains a graph between outline grouping. The waterfall graph is a grouping of: chart object; text box; shape; and a copied picture (of a cell value with symbol).

Can select the sheet in the browser, but that version will not interact with a grouped chart object.

Prefer not to delete the sheet in the browser, as it also contains numerous calculations.

Would be grateful for recommendations.

Hopefully I have made myself clear.

Many thanks,
David
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
