I have an excel spread sheet running on my system that takes a live feed for stock prices. (i use it to calculate upto date portfolio performance). I have also set it to autosave every min. Unfortunately ever since i have made this spread sheet, my system runs out of resources about 4-5 hours time and i have to reboot.

Is there a way to track this memory leak and plug it?

I got a P2-350 with 64MB ram at work running win 98 se

Win98se is the problem, not Excel...Win2k or WinXP would solve that problem for you. The only other alternative would be to close Excel and reboot every hour or so...

I believe there was a MS patch for Office that dealt with this. Run the update and see if you've downloaded it yet.
