Excel 2010 Errors Regarding Memory and Resources
Hello,
I have a user with an Excel 2010 issue. The laptop is brand new HP laptop with Windows 7 Professional, i5 Processor and 8GB of memory. The user has been receiving errors regarding memory and available resources while using Excel. The errors are random when they occur, user could have one Excel spreadsheet open or mulitiple open. Not always the same open file either.
The error is usually
Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications.' or
Microsoft Excel cannot open or save any more documents because there is not enough available memory or disk space.'
Or sometimes one followed by the next.
We have updated Office to the lateset SP, Repaired Office, Removed Temp Files in Excel Files, as well as Setting Some Permissions (which I cannot find the Document again, that Explains what I did but if someone mentions it, it will come back to me, sorry)
Any help would be apprecited, my user is completely frustrated at this issue.

Hi guys just getting back to you the user has tried opening Excel files within Excel instead of using Explorer and the problem still persists anybody else have any idea what I can do to solve this issue. Any help is greatly appreciated the user is getting extremely frustrated this is a brand-new laptop.
I am having the same issue. Only seems to be happening on a share though. When I copy excel files to the local desktop it works fine.
I changed the permissions on the users to domain admin (sledgehammer to a nut) and the user can now open the excel files. (I have since altered permissions) user is on a new HP elitebook and server is MS server 2008

This user is on a standalone laptop, workgroup no domain. She is an admin , any other thoughts?
Can you try coping the documents and opening them from a few different locations to rule out the permissions issue. Maybe setup a temp folder on the root of C and give full permissions to the user?
