EXCEL 7 hangs when using pivot tables and other external data sources
I have found Excel hanging a lot when doing something
with pivot tables or external data sources. This happended today and so I killed
Excel on doing so the application error reporting kicked in, I reported the
error and was taken to a KB article about the "Information Bridge Framework" and
that it doesn't work with .Net 2.0 and Office 2007.
I guess the "Information Bridge" is used for exchanging data between
applications, in which case most people using Excel and the data components will
be using it.
Suprisingly its requires a hotfix that you need to get
hold of from MS support. Whats
the quickest way to get a hotfix?
