    Hi,

    Superfluous rows and columns can do this. I had a document that was around 7MB (which is big enough anyhow!), it suddenly grew to 45MB - turned out I'd copied formatting down all 65000-odd rows of a couple of worksheets. Undoing this dramatically reduced the file size.

    Take a look here too, few more suggestions:
