https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/autocad-forum/linked-excel-files-causing-crash-in-autocad-2015/m-p/6033639#M333045 <P>I think I have solved the problem temporarily with a project I am currently working on with the same issue. It has several pages of linked excel files.&nbsp; The way I solved the issue is to open all of the linked excel files in excel, then open the dwg file.&nbsp; This way, it is easy for autocad to read the files instead of having to locate and read them to open the dwg file.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>My company laptop only has 8G memory and cannot handle the excess, however, the files will open on a computer with more memory.&nbsp; This is my workaround.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Hope this helps.</P> Wed, 10 Feb 2016 17:00:35 GMT Anonymous 2016-02-10T17:00:35Z
