INTRODUCTION

Issue that this hotfix package fixes

  • Assume that you have a Microsoft SharePoint list that contains some items that have long text strings. When you export data from the SharePoint list to Excel 2010, the import process takes much longer than expected. Specifically, Excel freezes temporarily while the status bar displays the text "Adjusting Column Widths."

    Note This issue does not occur in either Microsoft Office Excel 2003 or Microsoft Excel 2007.
