OMG, I hate that. Why do they make things so complicated?

I don't mind two pages as long as there is a reason for it. As an example, you have multiple accounts with the same website (they are all in a list) so you select the one you want to use, then it goes to the password page so you an enter the password for that specific account. But I agree that it should be one page where you enter the Username and Password if you only have one account on that website.

I don't see any validity to that reasoning for two screens instead of one.

I somehow managed to turn a brand-new workbook in Excel to 10mb (that's big) and very freezy. I didn't even have a chance to put any data into it. I opened it up with 7-zip and the xml file for the one sheet was like 111 mb uncompressed. I think I somehow managed to apply formatting to every single unused cell.

Just select the upper left corner (whole sheet) and remove all formatting.
