Slow loading of LARGE workbood

Folks,
I have an extremely large worksbook with over 350 worksheets and over 5.5mb. There are tons of macros I use. It taker a long time to load. I need opinions tgo speed up loading the workbook. I'm considering placing this code when the workbook launaches:

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

and place this code when the worksheet launches and closes:

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

The file is on a local drive.
Nothing out of the ordinary when the workbook first launches.
I did a test and when I launch the workbook with maunal calculation the file took 2:15 to load rather than 3:21 seconds.

Martin,
There was a significant difference in the how file loads. I'm still building my Excel Formula and Functions workbook after all this time so you have some idea on the project you helped me with.
Thanks,
Frank
