Hello,

I have a user (with Excel 2010) who browses to a network folder and opens any excel file, either .xls or .xlsx and it appears to be opening the file two times. Excel will open immediately, but the file will show "downloading" which is fine, but it takes about 3-5 minutes for a 1 worksheet file to open, and when it finally opens it says that "This file is already in use by user: X." X is always the person that is trying to open the file though. If he closes Excel and re-opens that same file, it will open immediately with no problems.

I don't think it's his network connection because he doesn't have any similar issues with Word, Powerpoint, etc., only Excel.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.
