I am trying to copy 8 adjacent cells in a sheet and paste them on another sheet as a picture (using copy picture method). I could do that 3/4 times, but after that I started getting the insufficient system resources error.
View 7 RepliesI've been working with links the past few days and have been experiencing the subject error message. What do I need to do to avoid the error?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having a few issues with a macro I have written (something I am relatively new to, I might add). Whenever I run it, I get an error message of "cannot complete this task with available resources" - I am currently using Excel 2003
What I am trying to do is cycle though a list of 401 vehicle numbers (the WBSs), using each individual WBS to filter data in another worksheet (sheet "MC01"), and then copy a range of this filtered data into a separate, vehicle specific worksheet (starting at sheet "P1" and continuing to sheet "P401").
The code would run fine when I kept the Field 9 Filter Criteria1 value a constant WBS number, but when I introduced the phrase to use the different values on the WBS sheet (Criteria1:="=" & WBS.Value), the macro would run perfectly for half the vehicles before giving the error message and bugging out.
I thought this could be solved by dumping the memory on each loop by using Set WBS = Nothing but this doesn't make any difference.
Code is as follows:
Sub Update_MC01()
Dim I As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("WBS").Select
Range("B2").Select
Set WBS = ActiveCell
Sheets("MC01").Select
Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Sheets("P1").Select
I understand that 401+ worksheets is a lot for any workbook to handle, but the fact that if I set Criteria1 as being a static WBS vehicle number Excel has no issues with it, and everything cycles fine. It is the addition of the phrase "=" & WBS.Value that causes the hiccoughs. From my very basic knowledge of VB, all I can assume is that Excel is storing this "WBS.Value" in it's memory on each loop. Am I right in thinking that the phrase Set WBS = Nothing is the right thing to use to empty this memory?
I have the following code for a sheet in my workbook that has 3 charts:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("RdteObs").Chart.SetSourceData ThisWorkbook.Names("GSumRdteObs").RefersToRange
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("RdteWip").Chart.SetSourceData ThisWorkbook.Names("GSumRdteWip").RefersToRange
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("RdteExp").Chart.SetSourceData ThisWorkbook.Names("GSumRdteExp").RefersToRange
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End Sub
but whenever the sub runs, I get this error message: "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications." Does anyone have an idea what's going on?
The macro below will generate a System Error '-2147417848 (80010108)' when executed as shown below but only when there is a value in the 6th column that ends in .0006(or .00061). It will however run if no empty cells are present after the cell with .0006 in the 6th column (i.e. J = 1 to 6). This can be avoided by using the "On Error Resume Next". What is strange is if the value ends in anything other than .0006(or.0061) in the 6th column it will work fine (i.e. .00062 or .0005).
In a new workbook I have the following values in A1:B6

I've got this code that I use to open the active session of a program I use (EXTRA! 8.0). When I try to code it to open a specific new instance of the program, I get a run-time error 429. When I debug, it's stopping on the line where I get the new instance. I've searched on this issue, but I still don't understand what the problem is.

End If
Set Sess2 = GetObject("C:Program FilesExtra!sessionsCCS2.edp")
If Sess2 Is Nothing Then

When I run this I get this halt "System error&H80070057 (-2147024809). The parameter is incorrect. I havn't been doing VBA in a while as I am retired now but I have used this particular statement many times in the past and never had this error before. I have made sure there no typos. I open another workbook which has forms opening and copy pasted the the routine into my other workbook but I get the same error.
I have created workbooks for four health regions to collect data, which then needs to be resubmitted via FTP, but with de-identified data. The end users have little to no excel experience, thus had to make it simple as possible. Created a button that runs the macro (below) to deidentify (clear) all cells where there could possibly be personal identifying information. Runs fine on my cpu, but one user (so far) has received the error noted in the title. Both running excel 2003 with SP3 (I have version 11.8169.8172, user has 11.8316.8221), I have XP professional SP2, user has XP professional SP3. Spent hours searching and reading suggestions online, to no avail.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just signed up to the forums as I am having a very specific problem. I have looked on google and used the search feature (on several forums!) and found very limited information that is useful to me. I am having trouble with a very simple few lines of code in a macro. The code looks like this:
Function startmarketIDs()
Dim targeturl, writerow, readrow, textmass, xmlHTTP
targeturl = "http://lite.betfair.com/ Events.do?s=00010913z"
Set xmlHTTP = CreateObject("Microsoft.xmlHTTP")
xmlHTTP.Open "GET", targeturl, False
xmlHTTP.send
MsgBox xmlHTTP.StatusText
textmass = xmlHTTP.responsetext
MsgBox textmass
End Function
My problem occurs at the line "textmass = xmlHTTP.responsetext". The responsetext command is obviously causing problems because if I remove it, the code executes without error and the "xmlHTTP.statustext" says "OK". With the responsetext command left in, the code generates the following error: Run-time error '-1072896658 (c00ce56e)': System Error: -1072896658. If I change the targeturl to www.betfair.com, the code executes fine and I get a message box (as desired) with the source code of the website displayed. Without meaning to sound like Im answering my own question (!!), perhaps there is something about the url or the way in which I am using the xmlHTTP object that is causing the issue, I wondered if someone would mind inspecting my code and perhaps pointing me in the right direction?
correct this line of code?

I've been using a macro successfully for the last couple of years, but this morning when I went to use it, it decided to fail. I have a workbook which contains various spreadsheets. The macro that has failed performs the following tasks:
1. It copies a list of email addresss from an external workbook to a sheet in the current workbook (still works)
2. It copies the referral sheet I want to send to a new file, and saves it with an appropriate filename to an appropriate folder (still works)
3. The macro then creates an email with a standard subject line, attaches the new worksheet and emails it to each of the addresses as above (broken)
The error message is from Microsoft Visual Basic. "Run-time error '1004': Mail system failure. Check your mail installation."
I'm guessing there is a setting somewhere in Excel that has changed as part of an update.
I've been through a number of the options in the developer menu to remove any obvious restrictions (& reopened excel afterwards), but so far it hasn't resolved the problem.
For what it's worth, here is the macro code.
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
Run "PullInSheet1"
Dim oldbook As String
[Code] .......
In case you're wondering about the pullinsheet code, I'll add it below - but I probably grabbed it from this forum a couple of years ago (like some of the above) & just made some changes.
Code:
Sub PullInSheet1()
Dim AreaAddress As String
'''''' Sheet11.UsedRange.Clear
Dim ClRange As String
ClRange = "= 'L:ADMINEMPLOY SERVICES" _
[Code] ........
There are a couple of things I've wanted to do to improve the macro, but I couldn't justify the need to spend time working it out (since writing spreadsheets isn't really my job). Since it's broken at the moment, I can...
1. I'd like to create a subject line that reflects the name of the person being referred. For some reason though, anything other than text in the cell reference caused an error for me. eg, I tried using concatenate to create my subject line, but it didn't work.
2. I'd like the copied sheet to contain all of the formatting of the original sheet. Presumably there is a paste option that will do this and I just picked the wrong one.
The mailsystem we use is Groupwise 8. I couldn't find any settings in that program that have been changed, or that I could change.
I should change the extension from xls to xlsx in the code since I'm using Excel 2010 (but changing it doesn't fix the problem).
I just cant get this working, and I cannot see why....

First of all, I would like to thank all Excel Forum Moderators and Members especially Andy Pope for the great effort they exert to help all members.
Lately, I viewed the thread available on the following link and I admired the great perfect work and codes provided by Andy Pope so much,
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...-userform.html
My request is similar to the points discussed in the above mentioned thread, but, it is a little bit different ..
Instead of inserting the picture to the worksheet, I want the picture to be copied from one folder on the HD to another folder called (Employees photos), which is located in workbook's path.
In other words, I need a code to copy one jpg picture from one location to another.
I would like a macro that would analyze a range (H15:GI15) to see if they contain FH, FS, FB, FR, or FC and if they do, copy the related picture associated with the 5 variables and paste it in the cell.
I did this code and it worked, but the code is very long. Another problem I have is there needs to be a way to delete the existing pictures before the code runs too. Because the cells may change and the button that runs the macro would be labeled "update" or something to that effect. I don't really need it to run everytime the cell is updated, just when the "update" button is pushed.
I’m trying to copy a chart as a Picture but when I select Shift Edit as Jon Pelltier suggests at http://peltiertech.com/Excel/XL_PPT.html
In the Copy Picture dialog box it doesn’t appear the “Format” option (to enable Picture copy).
Why is this happening?.

I'm trying to copy a picture from one Worksheet to another and then resize it, when i select the picture after pasting it into the other worksheet i use the code ActiveSheet.Shapes("Picture 6").Select, the problem here is that i don't know the name of the picture because i use a loop that copys alot of pictures.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make an Excel sheet with a frontpage sheet and a data sheet. In the data sheet I have several columns with data and then in the end a cloumn with pictures. On the front page sheet I can easily with VLOOKUP formulas transfer the desired data from the data sheet to the front page sheet but I cannot seem to figure out how to copy the picture. When I try to copy the cell with the picture in it, the formula only copies the cell value, which is "0" because the only thing which is in the cell is the picture. how to copy a given picture from one sheet to another based on the information in another cell like a "Vlookup" formula?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a tab with several small tables (Column E-G). What I need to do is to copy them as pictures, move them to another tab, change the picture size, and align them in the new tab.
The data set is huge and it would involve lots of labor if copy and paste one by one. Is there any way to do it using a macro? I tried to record a macro, but it doesn't work. It will not change the size of the picture and I don't know how to tell Excel to align them the way I want.
I have a not too big catalog in Excel format (2010). Each row has a picture. Now, I need to generate sales report. Some items do not sell. For report purpose, I want to delete those rows along with the pictures. Possible to do so? I did an Internet search and found that drawing objects are not bonded to a row or a cell. Seems to me I cannot selectively delete picture in a particular row. True?

In Excel 2010, is there any way to paste a picture into a small picture/diagram box, and upon double clicking the picture it would explode to a larger size? And I guess double clicking it again would make it return to its original (smaller) size. I would be pasting several pictures into several different picture/diagram boxes and would need this to be a relative reference so that upon selection it explodes the appropriate picture?

Recently, when trying to copy and paste portions of excel worksheets, I've been getting the message: The picture is too large and will be truncated.

I currently have a macro that opens up a specific workbook, copies data from that workbook, and then pastes the data into the control workbook. I am using this macro for a few workbooks but for this specific file I am getting the "Excel lacks resources..." error. Even when I don't run the file and just try to open both files up at the same time I get this error. I realize the best solution would be to split up the file I am copying from but I don't wish to turn to that yet.
