Excel Comparison reports seem slow

Hello again,

As I've said before - I really like what I've seen of your product, its nearly exactly what I need. That being said I have a tiny issue with your application to do with comparison reports, You have:

HTML - Which isn't what I need as I might have a lot of comparison data and its slow to load (pagnation would help), and getting the data out of HTML is hard work

and

Excel - Which is slow to the point where I thought your app had crashed, I tried it on a smaller comparison sample and it worked but its slow...


Is Excel being slow a known issue?
Do I have any other options?
- Having the data in a CSV with a failed flag on the end for example? Then I could import the CSV into Excel myself

You could generate comparison report by parts as follows:

1. Select a batch of objects in the generated .dcomp or .scomp document.
2. Right-click in the grid and select 'Generate Comparison Report'. The 'Comparison Report' dialog box opens.
3. Select the 'Objects marked for synchronization' radiobutton.
4. Click the 'Generate' button.
5. Repeat the steps 1-4 for another batch of selected objects.
