My Simple Excel document is huge!

4.4 MBs? It won't even send. What did I do wrong? I've deleted all other
pages and even set the print area. It's one landscape page. Help!

Try two things.

Rob Bovey's Code Cleaner, www.appspro.com.

Save the workbook as a web page, then open that html file and save it back
as an xls file.

Thank you! I'll give it a try. Is it because there are macros in it? I
didn't think I did anything different. It would normally be about 20 kbs.

Excel files are prone to bloat, and maybe also corrupted. One addresses the
first, the other the second.

Sometimes Excel stores formatting, etc. for empty rows at the end of
your sheet. Make sure these rows are actually empty -- delete, don't
just clear contents. Select the first blank row at the end, hit
Ctrl+Shift+Down to select to the end of the document, then Edit |
Delete.
