About two years ago, I wrote an article about FastExcel, a software product designed to make your Microsoft Excel™ spreadsheets run more efficiently. I am reminding Microsoft Excel users again of the benefits of FastExcel.
Charles Williams, the software developer of FastExcel, summarizes the program's function as the following: FastExcel helps you run Excel faster by providing a set of tools to analyse and time your workbooks, online help and advice on how to eliminate many frequently occurring bottlenecks, and a Worksheet Flow Optimising tool.
When I work with large and complex spreadsheets, I find FastExcel invaluable. I am able to find my bottlenecks and remove them, allowing the spreadsheets to operate significantly faster. In addition to removing bottlenecks, the software can also clean workbooks by cleaning the excess of the used range, deleting temporary files, removing invalid names (I use named ranges extensively), deleting empty worksheets and much more.
The following two links provide a sample of the program's uses and functionality:
Because I find the program invaluable, I thought I would highlight it to others. As a matter of disclosure, I am merely an appreciative user. I receive no remuneration for providing a strong endorsement of FastExcel. I endorse the product because it is an extremely well written program that is invaluable.
