Excel 2002 closing by itself???
Hello All
I have an excel spreadsheet linked to remote sources and auto updating itself. I use it for display purposes. Production numbers mostly. Anyway it works good except for one thing. It just seems to shut itself off after about 10 or 11 hours. I haven't actually caught it happening but there's no message, or error displayed. I just find windows back at the desktop. Excel is closed. It's not in the taskbar. My code is pretty straight forward. Do, mycode, wait 2 secs, loop. I would like this display to run 24/7. I thought maybe I had a stack error but usually you get a message for that. I'm not sure what to look for. Any help would be much appreciated. I hope this all makes sense. Any ideas? Paul |
