Prevent 'Run-time error '7' out of memory' error in Excel when using macro
- by MasterJedi
I keep getting this error whenever I run a macro in my excel file. Is there any way I can prevent this? My code is below. Debugging highlights the following line as the issue:
ActiveSheet.Shapes.SelectAll
My macro:
Private Sub Save()
Dim sh As Worksheet
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Report").Copy 'Create new workbook with Sheets("Report"(2)) as only sheet.
Set sh = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1) 'Set the new sheet to a variable. New workbook is now active workbook.
sh.Name = sh.Range("B9") & "_" & Format(Date, "mmyyyy") 'Rename the new sheet to B9 value + date.
With sh.UsedRange.Cells
.Value = .Value 'eliminate all formulas
.Validation.Delete 'remove all validation
.FormatConditions.Delete 'remove all conditional formatting
ActiveSheet.Buttons.Delete
ActiveSheet.Shapes.SelectAll
Selection.Delete
lrow = Range("I" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row 'select rows from bottom up to last containing data in column I
Rows(lrow + 1 & ":" & Rows.Count).Delete 'delete rows with no data in column I
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
.Range("A410:XFD1048576").Delete Shift:=xlUp 'delete all cells outwith report range
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Dim counter
Dim nameCount
nameCount = ActiveWorkbook.Names.Count
counter = nameCount
Do While counter > 0
ActiveWorkbook.Names(counter).Delete
counter = counter - 1
Loop 'remove named ranges from workbook
End With
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "\\Marko\Report\" & sh.Name & ".xlsx" 'Save new workbook using same name as new sheet.
ActiveWorkbook.Close False 'Close the new workbook.
MsgBox ("Export complete. Choose the next ADP in cell B9 and click 'Calculate'.") 'Display message box to inform user that report has been saved.
End Sub
Not sure how to make this more efficient or to prevent this error.
