I've seen that behavior in the Access VBE if there is active code running
(say, a Form timer that Break mode doesn't effect) while I am making edits.
The VBE really, really, really doesn't like that.

Again, I will have a look at this. I think while I was developing I
used the Worksheet_Activate event, but have long since changed that
(and have exported the code out since then).

It could be possible the macro is still running. I usually find
restarting works, and in the worst case I start my spredsheet and
disable macros

Many thanks

I don't think this is a possibility because I always wait for the macros
to stop running before going into the editor. I was thinking maybe it
was due to the number of occupied cells, but it's very minimal really.
Longer term, I won't be using my spreadsheet to display the contents of
the data I am reading from a file, so hopefully then the problem will go
away
