Excel 使用个人宏工作簿后冻结

Question

(first of all sorry for my english). Maybe someone experienced a similar issue and could help. I wrote some VBA code for simple tasks and put all of it in a personal workbook in the XLSTART. It's quite a small workbook, not more than 200-300 lines of code and some small tables in the worksheets of the personal that the macro takes info from. The problem is that excel is starting to freeze after copying something or in the middle of writing simple formulas. When it freezes I need to force close it via task manager. When I delete the personal workbook excel returns to work just fine so I know it has something to do with the personal. It's strange that the presence of a personal workbook in the background has that big of an effect on excel's performance. Has someone encountered this issue?

Answer 1

This may help or not depending on what causes your excel to hang.

Try to put these lines at the top of your code:

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

and this at the bottom:

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic

This will make your macro more prioritized as excel will stop recalculating formulas between every cell update.
