Look in the task manager an make sure you are actually releasing those
instances of Excel. I suspect you are not.

Hello

I have a VB 6 routine that does a lot of iterations. In each of the
iteration there is Excel manipulation.

Since MS Excel is extremely temperamental I create and destroy all Excel
objects in the correct order within each iteration.

The problem I face is that after about 50 iterations or sometimes a 100,
Excel object creation suddenly fails with the above error.

Any ideas why this would happen.

Thanks
Naveen
