I have been copying and pasting data from my old spreadsheets to new ones, and using format as table on them. All goes well to start; I select only the rows, columns that have data, remove any previous formatting; then copy/paste into the new sheets, then apply format as table to only those cells and columns that have data that I just figured out how to do.
After a few times of this, I get a message saying this will take some time to do, and an option to click continue, then, I click continue, and then a message comes up saying excel cannot complete the task, not enough memory, resources.
So then I am stuck, or faced with copying/pasting row, by row, column, by column, instead of a block of cells.
I have tried closing and reopening excel, increasing the memory, clearing out temp files, and sometimes it works a little bit, and then I get the message again.
