    Excel Spreadsheet Size

    I just got, via FTP, 4 Excel spreadsheets from one of my clients.

    Each file has four sheets in them. Three of the sheets only have a heading and the word NONE in the top cell.

    The other sheet has data from C1 to K40.

    Its size is 1,853MB - If I copy the data from that sheet to a brand new sheet, the file size is 17K.

    What the heck is making the spreadsheet from my client so large? I can't see it.

    (I also can not zip the sheet and attach it as the information on it is very properity to my client.)

    Any hints/suggestions/witchs brew that might lend a clue?





    Edit: There is no VBA code or macros in any of these sheets.
