    Excel slow or Non-responsive after alphabetizing Worksheets in a workbook

    Hello

    Over a period of time I entered dozens of worksheets into a very important workbook. Finally, I decided to put them in alphabetical order. I found a method/formula to perform the task on line. I made the suggested entry and it ran for some time. After it finished: the worksheets were in order. but since then Excel has been slow and many times unresponsive. Any idea what has happened?

    I appreciate your help.

    It's likely workbook bloat.

    There are numerous solutions. Here's one.

    Here is something else that you can try. It is an add-on for Excel that deletes excess formatting and resets the last cell on each worksheet.
