My spreadsheet is chugging through the following code. The data being filtered is rows A:AC, rows 10:193 (so not an absurdly large amount of data). It takes about 15 seconds to complete the filter. Ideas?
Private Sub EuropeButton_Click()
HeaderRegion = "Europe"
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = False
Range("A2:A8").Value = 0
Range("A2").Value = "TEG"
Range("A3").Value = "TUK"
Range("A4").Value = "TEF"
Range("A10").CurrentRegion.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, CriteriaRange:= _
Range("A1:A4"), Unique:=False
If Columns("E:F").Hidden = True Then
Columns("E:F").Hidden = False
End If
End Sub
I created this spreadsheet to assist with pricing for my towing company. I struggled with getting the dropdown lists and combo boxes to work, and I created and deleted many of them before I got it to work like I wanted, but I think I left a mess. It runs slow, showing a delay when I click on different radio buttons, and there is an exclamation point in the Excel icon in the file directory. Could someone take a look in the code structure and tell me if there are any opportunities to clean it up. RateCalcApp.xlsm
I have a blank workbook that I am just about ready to deploy, but it is very slow to calculate. I know I can manually calculate, but I would rather the workbook just be fast and calculate on its own. The workbook is blank now, but will be used all of 2010 and will ultimately end up being around 20,000 lines. So, I have built in the formulas and conditional formatting into the 20,000 lines now so I don’t have to continually add lines.
So, the questions are…
What part of the workbook is slowing it down?
Here is how the tabs breakdown:
NOTESJust text no formulas
DATA20,000 Rows 1 formula of conditional formatting (Covers entire 20,000 rows and all columns except A) 4 columns with formulas (2 using VLOOKUP, 1 using SUMIF, 1 simple addition)
I have a home finance spreadsheet that I've been using for a few years and in the last couple of days it's ground to a halt. Whenever I enter a value in a cell and hit [ENTER] there is a long delay with the spinning wait icon (Windows 7) and the Excel window reports "Not responding". Eventually (3-4 minutes) the update occurs and everything is fine.
The workbook has 9 sheets on it but only one summary sheet references the others. The sheet I'm updating has about 2200 rows, 50 columns and the formulas are simple A+B-C types. Performance DOES NOT improve if I change recalculation to manual. The only VBA is some macros to perform tasks and they don't execute dynamically. Adding comments and changing formats responds immediately, it is only updating values that exhibits the problem.
I've tried replacing all formulas with their values (paste special/values) across the sheet but again this didn't work.
I have a workbook made up of worksheets containing source data, pivot tables and charts but it is now becoming very slow since I have added a worksheet with many formulas.
If I move that worksheet containing many formulas (20 columns by 150 rows) to a different workbook will that help speed both of them up? The formulas will obviously still by referring to the original workbook.
Or is it simply by using formulas it slows things down whatever you do and I will have to think of a clever way of using pivot tables instead? Are there any other things that could be slowing it down? Other workbooks I maintain are fine.
I got a work sheet with 672 columns of information that im trying to cross compare against. I wanna compare each column against every other column in that row. I have 200 rows of data. That means each i need excel to do 226,128 comparion calculations each row. So that means in the entire work sheet its gotta do 91 million comparisons. Im on a dual core 1.8ghz core 2 duo cpu and 2 gigs of ram on xp pro with excel 2007. I even bumped up my virtual memory by 3 times the size it was yet still its taking forever.
Its taking over 3 hours to do this whole page of calculations. So i opened up visual c++ and quickly programmed in the same code with some generic values and within 3 seconds it computed it all. My guess is that the bottle neck is when excel has retrieve data from the cells because other than that i cant figure out why its so slow. Heres a section of my
I'm working working with this spreadsheet that is moving incredibly slow. Every time I enter anything, it takes anywhere from 10 seconds, to a couple minutes to calculate and let me proceed. It is a pretty big file (4.60 MB), but I also work with another spreadsheet that is a little smaller (2.95 MB) that has never taken more than a fraction of a second to calculate anything. What could I do to spead up the spreadsheet?
This module consists of app. 25 sub routines. Every sub routine is a For-Next Loop, with 70 For-Nexts to work through. The loops check certain input cells and if these cells are empty, the row is hidden. I have the reverse also where I can unhide these rows.
When I had about 8 of these loops in this module, it would work quite fast and it took about a second to run one of these subs. Now that I have 25 if I run one of these subs it takes about 20-30 seconds.
Before I break them all down into individual modules just to find out it doesn't work, is there anything else I should be doing or could try to speed these subs up? If breaking them down into more than one module is the solution, how do I do this best?
I have a workbook with macros Ive created that have been running just fine for 2 years now. Ive upgraded to a top of the line new Dell D830 dual core laptop with 2gb ram and installed excel 2003 (same excel as always). Certain macros that used to take a second or two to run on a celeron dell now take 3min's! Ive stepped through the code in debug mode and found that its hanging up in simple areas like "Columns("A:A").Select" and "Selection.ClearContents". We have 16 older laptops running these exact codes just fine all day long and the 2 new fast computers with core 2 duo processors are hanging up constantly in the same places in code. Ive gone through and made sure all the "option" settings are identical in excel. Is there some system setting That I'm missing or possibly an excel setting That I may have overlooked?
I have searched the forums re my issue and have not found a relevant solution. I have a large workbook 19MB in Excel 2007. There are 400 sheets and each sheet contains various formulas and one macro. The only graphics on each sheet are color coding of some cells. The workbook takes 2minutes 55 secs to load. Once open there are no issues. Is there a reason why this is so slow or do I just have to accept that being a large file it will take this long. There is no issue with HD space or RAM as the laptop is only used specifically for this workbook. Running Intel Core 2 Duo, 160 HDD, 2mb ram.
I have a relatively complex application with a few thousand cell links and dozens of VBA macros (3.5 MB heavy). This application (one file for each project) is used by a few hundred users in about 200 projects. What I did recently (to allow updating macro program functionality in existing files) is to move all macros into an add-in.
What happens now is every time when I change the content of any cell anywhere in the file, it takes about 3 seconds(!) to leave the cell after changing it and to jump into the one below. Of course I'm getting complaints from users about this slow behaviour.
This also applies to cells in sheets that have no event macro program related to them. It applies as well to cells that are not referenced in any other cell. I tried changing the calculation method from automatic to manual - no change in speed. I de-activated the add-in - no change in speed. I have checked if there are any formulas that contain the today() or function or the like - there are none (actually, I had replaced them with links to a cell that contains today's date, which is automatically updated when the file is opened, but this was also this way in the previous version).
It seems that there is something going on that causes Excel to be busy with itself.
Does anyone know what might cause this strange behaviour? I tried everything I could think of without success and I'm lost now.
We are using Excel 2003 in an XP Professional SP2 environment and most of our computers have 512 MB RAM.
i had a file with 10,500 lines, 18,000 kb and it seemed slow to load (about a minute) every time i made changes and then saved it or reopened it.
so i broke the file up into 3 smaller files by cutting and pasting. i deleted all empty lines and columns beyond the file content. i defragged my compter. i cleared all excess format in job history - but -
one file now has 3,900 lines, 22,300 kb and takes 4 minutes to load.
one file now has 2,000 lines, 20,100 kb and takes 4 minutes to load.
one file now has 4,900 lines, 14,500 kb and takes 1 minute to load.
I have attached a workbook that I want to be updated by the user. It contains a number of vlookups that to refer to a data source on a server communal to all users. I wondered if there would be anything that could be done in the workbook to help speed up an update?
Below is the entire code that I am using. It is a simple routine which checks whether a part has started its release process or not, based upon dates. The code works and does what I want.
The problem that I have is that it is very slow, for example it takes 35 seconds to go through 530 lines items. In my (limeted) experiance, based on other VBA doodlings this slow.
I am trying to make a macro that copies a file per row to a folder specified by a cell in the row (and then calls a command line tool on it). I am using FileCopy to copy the file, but it is extremely slow even for only 6 rows (I need it to work with hundreds).
I think the problem is that the folders are network folders. Is there maybe another copy file function in VBA that does not block while the operation completes? I could go through all my rows and just copy the files, then go through again and run the command line tool. By the time it reaches the end of the sheet, the first file would be done copying.
I have the following macro in a worksheet...and it is running very slow. There are other macros in the worksheet and they all run very well. Any ideas by looking at this code why it would be so slow in running?
It happily goes through a list and sums multiple records. It might not be the most efficient or best way to do it but it works and when I run it on a couple of stand alone sheets it takes a couple of seconds to process if that.
Unfortunately when I run it as part of the overall application that I've developed it takes ages to run, i.e. more like ten minutes.
The spreadsheet has a few graphs and about 250 sumproduct and array formula live in it but all other formula on other sheets are created and then paste valued as part of other VBA routines. As you can see I've also turned calculation off as the procedure runs so don't understand why it is suddenly taking so long.
A macro in workbook 1 creates a report by reading & manipulating data from two workbooks(WB 1 and WB 2).
A new blank report sheet is copied from WB1 to WB2. The data (some text, some numeric) is collected in a 20 element, single dimension array & written to the new sheet in 20 columns using a for/next loop. This is repeated for many rows(can be more than 1000).
The array is "erased" before each row. Screenupdating is turned off, calculation is turned off. The report takes longer & longer each time it is run - Why? With the one-and-only "Write" line "remmed out" the report takes just 2 secs however many times it is re-run - including the copying of the blank master report page. If the first report takes, say, 1 min the second time takes 2 mins & the 3rd - 3 mins etc. Reset is only achieved by exiting excel. The code in question is:- For col = 1 to 20 : cells(ro,col) = d(col) : Next col. (ro = the current row number which is incremented for each pass, d() is the data array)
way the code below can be made more efficient? Basically, I drop down a combobox, and based on the value i select, it populates a lot of textboxes etc based on the listindex.....
Private Sub ComboBox3_Click() On Error Resume Next With Me.ComboBox3 If .ListIndex = -1 Then Exit Sub Label23.Caption = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "c").Value Label24.Caption = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "b").Value Label38.Caption = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "d").Value TextBox1.Text = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "e").Value TextBox2.Text = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "f").Value TextBox3.Text = Sheets("overview").Cells(.ListIndex + 2, "g").Value
It takes about 10 seconds every time i choose another project
The code below runs on a spreadsheet that has approx 600 rows which INDEX and MATCH another spreadsheet which has approx 600 rows. I takes about 4 mins to run. Sub QC()
Due to the fact that some of the raw data I get dumped out of my database has leading and trailing spaces it is necessary to trim them. The one part of my code which seems to take forever to run is the section which performs this function on around 22,000 cells in one column. Here is the code I'm using. Is there a better way to do this?
'Set ServiceType = wsTmp.Range("C2:C" & tmpRows) ' 'For Each cell In ServiceType 'cell.Value = Trim(cell.Value) 'Next cell
The thing, with much code, seems to be that the slowness of my computer in executing code is directly proportional to the amount of uptime on the machine. Often a cold start will remedy the issue. Rather than having to do this daily to remedy the situation is there some other remedy to the problem?
