    File Size Too Much

    Hi All,

    The attached file contains only one sheet with a few text in it. Still the file size is 3 MB+ I am not able to figure out why?
    Can anybody please help me in figuring out why it is taking too much size?

    I had to attach the zipped version as ExcelForum doesn't allow me to upload this much big file.

    Thanks in Advance!

    big_file.zip

    Hi, Tejas,

    delete the rows from Row78 on to the end as well as the columns from Z on - file size after that 21,2 KB.

    Ciao,

    Hello HaHoBe,
    Thanks for your answer.

    Actually I have been able to reduce size by that. But I want to know the reason actually. This sheet is populated by a big VBA code I have written. So once I come to know about reason, I can make required changes in my code.

    Hope you would help me further on this.

    Thanks.

    Hi, Tejas,

    sorry but I canīt say anything about your code doing strange things to the file size as you have shown neither the code nor given details on the original file size. But I think itīs not that difficult to add two more lines of code to like
