And you have verified that if you open them on the other side of the WAN 
link they open quicker?

Subject:        Slow Excel Files



Hi All,

I have a Windows 2008R2 file server at the far end of a WAN link.  There 
is a 20ms ping time between the workstations and the server.  This is 
pretty constant.

The file server contains a lot of Excel files.  Different versions, some 
with macros some without.  Some files are quite old, some are newer.

Opening some of these files over the WAN link can take upwards of a 
minute for a 1MB file.  Other similarly sized files will open in 6 
seconds.

At this point I'm looking for a few thoughts on where I can start my 
investigations.

Thx

Shawn
