How come the formula I made here: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...ther-cell.html
runs fine on one of my laptops and completely kills the other one? They are both about 2 years old with quad mega giga and all that. Hmm... now that I think about it I start to wonder if it's not a matter of different laptops, it's a matter of different occasions.
Anyhow, if anyone cares to open it and see how it runs on their pc. I'm fairly pleased with the formula but I do recall something about there being a lot of text in one cell. I can't even open it on this laptop now. Fortunately OP seems perfectly happy with it.
I noticed it on a VBA project at work as well. My computer was noticeable sluggish handling my VBA Excel application. A colleague (the user fortunately) with a similar HP laptop had virtually no delay what so ever. Everything was instant. Makes me wonder if there is a setting to be manipulated... What about how many processors it's using? Is it something that if you are using 4 on light duty tasks it becomes slower because of the cost of overhead?
