    Heavy Excel Sheet

    I have an Excel document that is 546kb that consist of several sheets where the first sheet I use to fill in data and all other sheets are forms that take the data from trhe first sheet.
    Problem is now that the first sheet has become very slowly and freezes my program.
    I work as follow: I create Order in sheet1 and than copy that order to another sheet so that I can create a new order in sheet1. Than later when I want to make the forms I copy a previous order back to Sheet1. So I have the following sheets: sheet1, Order1, Order2, Order3, etc, Form1, Form2, Form3, etc
    Now it seems that when I copy an old Order back to Sheet1 it copies over the info already in sheet1 instead that it replaces it. So after some time it becomes lots of orders copied above eachother. I had a logo and indeed I noticed that the logo was never replaced but had some 100 logos on sheet1. I deleted the logo and all went smooth but now again I have the same trouble.
    Any clever answer?

    Instead of pasting it back, Paste Special > Values. Your objects (logo) won't be included if you do that. Paste Special > Formulas will also work if you want to keep formulas the way they are. Does that help?

    Not really, I still have the heavy slowly sheet. Maybe with this it doesn't add up nad indeed replaces but I don't know

    Now I found something strange and maybe it is related with my problem. To fill in a date I use a popup calendar and than click the right date. Point is that I used to work with one model of Calendar that calls "UserForm2" and now work with another model that calls "frmCalendar". When I made the change I changed in Visual basic (alt F11) to "frmCalendar.show". Though the strange thing is now that in Sheet1 and some Order sheets appears "frmCalendar" model though in 5 Order sheets (total 7) appears the "UserForm2" model. When I open in these order sheets the VB (alt F11) it does is written "frmCalendar.show".
    Maybe here my document get confused and requires lots of processing data. Though how to correct this as that in VB all appears with "frmCalendar"?

    Now I receive the following error message:
    "Has produced the error '6' in time of execution: Overflow"
    When I click on Debug than is marked in yellow: "If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then.

    Anybody can help me out?
