Hi,
I have exactly the same problem since I upgraded my Office 2008 with
Service Pack 1: If I open our company main budgeting/planning Excel and
change a percentage field that affects some other figures, after hitting
enter Excel 2008 freezes and uses 100% of the CPU time until it is Force
quit. It says "Calculating Cells: 0%" and freezes. I have waited ten
minutes and then force quit it.
I can reproduce this every time. And, before applying SP1 I never had a
problem. Also, if I open the file with Office 2007 it works like a charm.
I have a MacBook Pro Core Duo and I have tested this with OS X 10.5.2 and
10.5.3.
Unfortunately I cannot submit the sheet. I have submitted the Apple
Problem Re****t. If you tell me where to send that debug information after
force quitting Excel, I can do that. Or if there is a way to run Excel in a
debug mode I can reproduce this and send the information.
At this time Excel 2008 is useless to our company but luckily this affects
to only one upgraded workstation.
Kind Regards,
Niko
