Excel 2003 Crashes When Calculating

I am launching a file saved in Excel 2000 for the first
time with Excel 2003. It is a large file (approx. 14M)
and contains multiple array formulas. I can get the file
to open, but it won't calculate without a "not
responding" error coming up. Any thoughts?
 
I got it to calculate by turning off calculate before
opening. The "calculate before save" box must be
unchecked. Then I saved the file again in version 2003.
Then I hit F9 and waited about half an hour. The "not
responding" message did not show up in the title bar.
Eventually it all calculated. If anyone else had a
similar problem, there is the answer. Wait forever.
