When I run a group of macros for some reason after the marcro runs and I hit F2 excel crashes.
I have figured out that it is one of the marcros that makes the excel crash. It is only when I run the solver application. The code is below. Any thoughts why hitting F2 after running this marcro would crash the machine?
I have created a macro in xl2000 which was working fine - although through corporate upgrades my machine has now been upgraded with xl2003 and the macro runs for a bit and then crashes on the code below, although it only highlights teh 'rnum'
rnum = ActiveCell.Row
Is there a difference between xl2000 & xl2003?
I have a cell, D5, which is the sum of three other cells, A5 B5 and C5. (all currently empty). Cells A1 through C4 are filled with various numbers.
What I've been trying to do is use solver to say: Make D5 equal 200, do it by manipulating only A5 B5 and C5, and make it subject to the constraint that A5 must equal a value selected from A1:A4, and B5 must equal a value from B1:B4, and C5 ...etc. I have deliberately set it up so that there is only one solution.
I was doing fine until trying to create the constraints. How can I make a constraint that says "this cell" must equal "one of the following cells"? And if I can't do that, is there an alternate method of achieving the same result?
can I program a macro to run solver? ...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run a macro which will allow me to run solver and keep the solution.. I have managed to get the macro to work. However, does anyone knows how I can ensure that solver's solution can be automatically saved without prompting the user whether to save the solution?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a report I produce where I take an XML file, sort it and run some simple formulas then sort another way and run a few more formulas then update a pivot table. The XML files I'm using have the same headers but vary in length. When I set the macro up for a particular XML file everything works fine. When I import another one (different size) I get the error message:
Run-time error ‘1004’:
Sort method of Range class failed
When I look at the code I see that the range is fixed to the XML file I used when setting the macro up. Is there a way to auto-select the table in the macro so I can run the same macro on any size XML?
I have the following strange problem. A simple macro 'ActiveWorkbook.Close' causes excel to crash if I use it with a button on my sheet (a form). When I run the macro via developer > macros > run
the macro runs as expected. Even if a run the macro with alerts (thanks to jproffer) the problem persist.
I have a problem with a macro in Excel 2007. It invokes
solver and creates an answer report. Please find the VB
code for macro, below.
I have developed a model for a client which keeps crashing after being used a few times. The crash is major! Excel shuts down and asks to send an error report.
This can happen after being run anywhere from 3 to 20 times. (Clicking a POST button which transfers items to a "database" type sheet).
I developed the model on a PC using Excel 2010. When this was loaded on a Mac, the user tells me that it happened periodically, and I have seen is occasionally on my PC as well.
However, the workbook has now been loaded on a server, with users across the state of Victoria accessing via Sharepoint - most using Excel 2007. Now it is happening very frequently.
I don't think the macro is at fault, it doesn't go into debug. Excel just seems to GIVE UP.
Have you seen this kind of thing before? Is there a way of "flushing buffers" or something so that Excel can keep working?
I am reluctant to post the model because it is full of personnel details, and is 2.5mb.
I have comment blocked the code that causes Excel to crash.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe macro does numerous things, including deleting the sheet that was active when it is called. If the sheet is not deleted, there is no crash. Otherwise, Excel crashes as soon as the VBA interpreter hits "Exit Sub". The Excel message is simply "Excel Stopped Working". The macro also saves the workbook before finishing, and the saved workbook opens just fine, but it's unacceptable to have to kill Excel and restart it every time (I am not the main user for this spreadsheet). I'm using Excel 2010 on Windows 7.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm just wondering if any of you can lend some help on a bug i'm encountering. When I press a button on my worksheet to call a macro that brings up a userform, the excel will crash, and give that "do you want to report this error", close down excel, and reopen on a blank worksheet. Strange thing is, this error is avoided if I save the workbook upon opening it, and then call that macro.
The workbook does not read data from external sources, so i dont think is that problem.
Has anyone encountered this?
A single macro that I can assign to a button and, when clicked, will compute 3 solver solutions instantly without the solver boxes popping up.
My problems
I am having trouble with the "ValueOf:=" part. In my code below, I am trying to tell it to go to either cell b14, b15, or b16, select that value which will be a number, and use that number as the "ValueOf". The ValueOf is the number I am ultimately trying to achieve using Solver. Range("B##").select doesn't work but I need to somehow select that number in that cell and tell solver to use that number when computing.
If I manually type a number for the "ValueOf:="0.952975095" it will compute it correctly but manually typing this number in each time defeats the purpose of creating this macro. The whole purpose of this macro is so I don't have to manually type in numbers.
Also, recording a macro with multiple solver steps hasn't worked. When the macro is ran with multiple Solver solutions, it only computes one solution... the last one. I think the last data is stored in the Solver application but I'm not sure how to erase it, and start a new solver setup. Anyways, you all would know better than I would.
What's important?
It needs to compute in a certain order. In this order: Cells D14, then D15, Finally D16. That's probably not a big deal though.
My code
Sub Macro1()

SolverOk SetCell:="$C$14", MaxMinVal:=3, ValueOf:=Range("B14").Select, ByChange:= _

Writing a macro to run SOLVER on a linear program. I have twenty tabs, each with a linear program and a solver already set up (constraints, cells to change, and cell to maximize). I would like to run a sub that will solve each tab's LP by running the tab's SOLVER...
If it makes it easier, my cell to maximize is I17, by changing B16:H16, subject to I20:I40 SolverAdd -> SolverOk -> SolverSolve
I have written this macro below to run solver multiple times. It saves the solver results on a line and then inserts a new line for the next solver run.

I have a VBA macro for Excel 2007 below that loops through a workbook and deletes a picture (shape) in a range at the top of each worksheet.
The macro works fine until a cell which contains a seemingly unrelated data validation list on Sheets(1) is changed. The macro then repeatedly trips up with a 'Run-time error 1004 - Application defined or object defined error'.
The cell with the data validation is outside of the range in which the shapes are deleted and does not set any of the variables in the macro.
Sub DeleteLogos()
Dim Count As Integer
Dim NumberOfWorksheets As Integer
Dim Logo As Shape
Dim LogoZone As Range
NumberOfWorksheets = Worksheets.Count
For Count = 1 To NumberOfWorksheets

I have a VBA macro that goes through a decently complex system to delete something like 70 old tabs, create new ones, link data from a main page to these tabs, and create 3 plots per tab. When running the script, it will go through something like 50 of the tabs, and then receive an error on something rather trivial that has been done many times before successfully in this macro (like changing the font size on one of the axes on one of the graphs). I tried an On Error Resume Next, and sure enough it ignores the error, but it then does some sort of crazy loop starting over recreating all the tabs incorrectly, and then excel just shuts down. So, that's no good.
Anyway, I can comment out the change of the font size, but it still has the same issue on some other trivial thing. It seems like the system just runs out of room or needs a cache cleared or something. I'm not sure.
I am trying to write this macro so that I can optimize 181 outputs based on 2 inputs (columns A and B are inputs). Each row has a single output at the end of the row that I am trying to minimize. I want to be able to select as many of the rows that I want and have the code optimize each individual row. So far I can't get it to let me use variable cell references for the "ByChange:="$A$3,$B$3"." This is the hang up that is not letting me increment the macro to the next row. The macro works currently for the single selected cell, but until I can vary the ByChange portion, I can't automate it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to prevent the Workbook_SheetChange event macro from triggering when I run Excel's Solver?
The solver goes through 100 or so iterations changing multiple cells each of which seemed to trigger the Workbook_SheetChange event. If there was a Solver Run event, I could turn off application events, but as far as I know such an event does not exist.
I have to use use the solver to calculate something (a mean-variance framework).
I am using the solver to minimize a cartain cell (variance) by making two cells equal through (expected return) by varying 10 cells( weights of assets), but I have to repeat this for 500+ times (for different expected returns).
Someone told me that I could best use some sort of loop through VBA. But I don't have a clue how that works.
I want to use solver program. But when solver "changes cells" i want it to trigger my pivot tables in the workbook. So i added the code to my worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
ThisWorkbook.RefreshAll
End Sub
So when a change occurs, all my pivot tables will get refreshed and my data will change. Is solver able to trigger this event while solving an optimization problem?
I have the following code which filters data in a sheet, and loads the numbers into textboxes on a userform. There are two multipage controls, each with several textboxes on them. I have commented out several lines because if I leave any of them in, it crashes excel.
It will work once. But if I close the workbook, re-open it, and run the code again, it crashes.
The thing I find really interesting is that all the 'problem lines' were added in as part of a retro-fit. The person I created this workbook for needed one more column of data. I followed the same programming pattern as what I used on the other, but only these ones seem to cause problems. Any thoughts?

I'm trying to use a listbox and wanted to have the data sit in a different sheet. When I do this, I get a message about low memory and then excel says it has an error and shuts down. When I move the data to the same sheet as the listbox, there is no problem.
I'm using excel 2000 and that's all I can get (at work). Any thoughts? Should I just put the data on the same sheet and hide it? Is there a way around this?
