Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complet

[visualuser]

User is telling me that he gets this message when editing a spreadsheet.

Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE action.

He's pulling it off the server but still should not be getting the message.

What's the fix and why is this happening?

Thanks....!!!

I guess the user must be calling some info
from a network somewhere - and this is likely to be in code...
If so - you need to turn off excels warnings during the code procedure.

application.DisplayAlerts=False

users code....

application.DisplayAlerts=True

There is a link sheet and I assume the user id lauching it from that. The actual file is on a network share with the shortcut on the desktop. Does this help more in determining what the issue is?

Thanks a lot.
