limit on size of macro for excell97
 

Hi
Does anyone know if there is a limit on the size of a macro in Excel 97.
The reason i ask is that when i get to a certain point in writing a
macro, excel bombs when i try to load the spread sheet containing the
macro. If i just paste the macro in from a copy i made in word, excel
works fine. It's only when i try to load the spread sheet that i get an
error which causes excel to close and try to send an error message to
Microsoft

There isn't a published limit, but it is often said that if you export the
module and look at its size, if it is approaching 64K, then you should
probably slit it. Of couse it shouldn't be a big deal to split it, so you
might try that anyway - that is if it isn't some long macro recorder type
single subroutine.
