    Drop down refresh rate

    Hi all,
    I have a file that I download daily and run through a couple of macros to reformat it. During reformatting, it applies auto-filter to each column so I can easily sort the data. Recently, it has started acting up such that when I click the arrow down on a column to select/deselect fields, it doesn't give me enough time to make my selections before refreshing and disappearing. I have to literally race to click boxes and hit OK...sometimes it takes several attempts. It is driving me crazuy and I cannot figure out what has suddenly caused it to start acting this way.
    HELP?

    Without at least your code it's hard to help. Best bet is to upload sample workbook (with sanitized data) that replicate your issue.

    Yours is the third thread I've read in the last week reporting like behavior. In two cases the issue was DropBox.

    This is the 3rd case of DropBox being the root cause. I had to completely uninstall DropBox to get the issue to stop. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
