Excel 2007
Trying to insert a row and window popped out -Large Operation. " The operation you are about to perform effects a large number of cells and may take a significant amount of time to complete. Are you sure you want to continue?" I pressed ok , then, says "Excel cannot complete thsi task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications. "
I have VBA code that attempts to delete an entire row from my worksheet:
Code:
Cells(3,1).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
This works fine on small data sets, but on larger data sets it gives me the error message, "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources". This happens even when I try to do the deletion manually (without VBA code). Clearly, the code itself is not the problem.
My document has about 250,000 rows and 2,500 columns. While this is big, it is significantly smaller than Excel's documented limit of 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns.
I am using Excel 2007. My computer has 2GB of RAM but even when I try it on a computer which has 8GB of RAM it gives me the same error. If I "ClearContents" instead of "Delete" it works fine. For my purposes, however, deletion is entirely necessary.
Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications. My file is only about 3mb in size, made up of 17 worksheets. These sheets are calculated by referencing to another file that contains all of the background data. The data file is also about 3mb, made up of 13 worksheets.
There are probably about 2 - 3 thousand formulas in the file in total, ranging including vlookups, sumifs, sumproducts, etc. When the data was contained within the file there was no problem. I moved each data sheet into a new workbook to trim the size of my file and also stop the incessant calculation and this is when the problem started. Now, when I open the file and am prompted to update, it will update to about half way and then throw up the error message!
I need to work with a spreadsheet with 15000 rows of data. By the time I link this file with my final file and add formulas, my file has reached a massive size and the following pop up error message appears.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("RdteObs").Chart.SetSourceData ThisWorkbook.Names("GSumRdteObs").RefersToRange

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?

These represent time it takes for a fax to send. I'm trying to find the average time it takes for these faxes to send. Using the built in @AVERAGE option does produce a number albeit an incorrect number. Wondered if I could convert these to decimal numbers then covert the result back to time - when trying that I don't get an average but rather a time of day - say 5:55:30PM.
I have a spreadsheet that users update which I then want them to perform a number of checks on. At the bottom will be a button for them to click stating "Click here to confirm checks completed". When they click it I want it to put a flag somewhere that I can then use to prevent them from saving if they haven't clicked the button. I know how to do the saving but, but how do I get the button to put a flag somewhere?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've created a search box for a price list, but some of the values come up with #REF. After many attempts I noticed that each of the formulas I created on the price list page came up with a different result for the values highlighted in each column. The formula is the same for each column, the column numbers being the
only difference - for instance:
Column A = code - the formula is =OFFSET(Pricelist!$A$3,0,0,COUNTA(Pricelist!$A:$A)-1).
Column D = colour - the formula is the same, but reads $D$3 and $D:$D.
When I go to Name Manager and check this formula, it only selects the first 105 entries in the column. There are about 380 entries and more may be added at various stages.
I have formulas for five other columns and they do exactly the same thing, but each column stops at a different entry. I'm working in Excel 2007, but it's a 2003 document.
What I am looking to do is find the time it has taking to complete a task - So the work sheet has four cells (See below) and return the total time with cell E
Cell A Cell B Cell C Cell D Cell E

There are 10 names and addresses like this on each PDF page and the entire PDF file has 50 pages so to manually copy and paste each bit of info into separate cells on the spreadsheet's appropriate cells "Name, Company, Address, State, Phone, Email" e.t.c is too difficult.
I currently use task scheduler to open a a spreadsheet at 4am every morning and run a macro. This macro refreshes data pulled from an accounting software. The macro also closes the spreadsheet at a specific time. After this is complete I have task scheduler open a separate spreadsheet and runs a macro to pull the data from the first spreadsheet into a dashboard presentation of sales data.
This all works fine...what I am looking to do is make sure both instances of excel get closed. Currently, this whole process is complete around 6am and when I get to work around 7 or 8 am there are two instances of excel still open. The workbooks are closed but excel is still open. When I am in the office I can just close these instances of excel but if I am out of the office these two instances of excel stay open and mess things up for the next mornings refresh.
Is there a way to make sure both instances of excel get closed? I am using the code below to close the spreadsheets.
Code:
Sub Closeworkbook()
ActiveWorkbook.Close True
End Sub
After minimizing my Excel form, I'm trying to re access it from the windows task bar. If I click on the Excel tab it shows me the 2 excel files I have open. I would normally just click on one of those and that sheet would be brought up, but I can't get either of them up - as soon as I click on one or other of them the window just minimizes again.

Some of my excel files, which are not massive seem to crash my computer when saving or recalulating or even using some filters. The files show as not responding for a couple of mins then come back to life after completing the requested action. Often this is not a complicate task that can cause this.
When this is happening the CPU usage shown on task manager is 99 for the excel file.
This doesn't happen on any other program, I can use word and powerpoint etc with no issues. Its just excel that my computer has a problem with.
This is really frustrating as I can end up twiddling my thumbs for 5 mins unable to do anything, when I just want the file to save or re calculate. I already use manual calculation on anything file more than 500 lines to work with the situation.
What's a proper way - in Excel VBA - to get the current folder *without* the preceding folders/path?
For example from folder "C:oracleora81sqlplusdemo" I'd like to retrieve "demo".
Currently I have:
Code:
DirNames = Split(ThisWorkbook.Path, "")
CurrentFolder = = DirNames(UBound(DirNames))
It works, but I suspect something exists specifically for this one.
My Excel 2007 has "auto complete with a drop down list". When I type in the first character, a drop down list appears listing all the entries in that column tha start with that character. I click on one of the entries and the cell is "auto completed" with that entry. Sure is handy. I try to find that functionally in Excell at work, Office Professional 2010, and no bueno for kaki.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two excel sheets, one has partial information (displayName, title, company, streetAddress, city, state, postalCode, Pager, homephone, fax) the other has the missing information that I need on the first sheet.
Sheet 1 (DB1, has partial info) and Sheet 2 (DB2, has the missing info). I need to somehow link these two, and what they both have in common is name. DB1 has "displayName" which is just First Name Last Name (e.g. John Smith). DB2 has First Name and Last Name, but i'll concatenate that to a new column named "displayName" ( which I assume will be needed to link? ).
The missing information in DB1 is title / streetAddress / city / postal code. DB2 has "Location" (which is a company code, and I want to replace the code with the address, city, postal code) and "Group" (which is title).
To make it easier, I could just do a find and replace on DB2 (e.g. A01-DFW-HWY67) and do it that way right? Or is there any easier way to do that?
Other than that though, how would I link DB1 and DB2, using displayName and fill out DB1 with the information from DB2?
Can I retrieve, from VBA, the exact value of a cell?
If in A1 I write 0.12348 with general, number or text format, from vba with MsgBox ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) I obtain 0.12348.
If in A1 write 0.12348 with currency or accounting formats, from vba with MsgBox ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) I obtain 0.1235.
Naturally, I need retrieve complete values from cells with format accounting?

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.

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 a (few) spreadsheets that I am using to gather data. One spreadsheet has over 9000 entries with 20 items for each entry (9000 rows, 20 columns). I use this as my source. In another spreadsheet I have the same column headers but, except for the one column that I enter manually, the rest of the columns are loaded from the source spreadsheet via a VLOOKUP function. As you can see there is a lot of data and a lot of action going on. Needless to say I have run into a conflect with the amount of resources I have available. I keep getting the message "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications."
Since I have no other applications open, and I can't use less data, how can I increase my resources. I have been told that Excel allocates resources to a set limit regardless of the amount of ram or other memory you have. Is there any way to increase this?
I need to pull a data from 3 different SharePoint lists and present it in a new data sheet. So far I know how to create data connections and I am able to see everything in 3 different worksheets but in the same workbook. Also if we have the same Project and IT number we should pull information just from the SharePoint 1 list.

View 2 Replies View RelatedA pop-up window with the next message: "insufficient resources to show all" is displayed when I try to use a combobox in a worksheet.
Details:
I have been using excel 2003 in a Pentium IV 1 GB Ram to run a large workbook (at least 40 worksheets) that uses a combobox to find a price from a database. The workbook contains lot of images and some single macros.
The error appears after I opened the workbook and I tried to use the combobox. Finally, after various clicks, I get the value requested but the pop-up window doesn’t disappear.
If I do not use the combobox I do not receive the error.
Done:
I have done unsuccessfully all the suggestion that I found on the web (Google, msn and AltaVista), and of course the Microsoft forums. I tried to clean memory, erase temporary files, increase memory values and so on.. but nothing seems to fix the issue.
I also tried to run the workbook in 3 different PCs – and 3 different RAM sizes - getting the same error.
I'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?
