Module Limits
I do a lot of VB programming in the modules, which take data from a
spreadsheet, perform a calcualtion and write the answer back to the spreadsheet. I have a lot of code in a number of modules. At a certain point, when I add code to a module, it stops working. Moving the code to another module ususally corrects the problem. My question: Is there a limit on the number or size of each module? |

Module Limits
There is no hard limit on the number of lines of code in a
module, but the compiled size of the code in the module must be less than 64K. I tend to keep modules less than about 3K lines of code. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Richard Weatherly" <Richard wrote in message ...

Thanks for the info, Chip.
How do you know how much the compiled size is?

Module Limits
Unfortunately, there is no way to determine the size of a module,
other than number of lines of code. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Richard Weatherly" wrote in message ...

Module Limits
Chip,
Two ideas on module size that I have used - please advise if these are not as effective as I had thought; 1. Export the module and view the file size using Windows Explorer 2. VBE Tools 2.0 Add-In from Office Automation (http://www.oaltd.co.uk ) has a module size indicator in its toolbar. Alex J "Chip Pearson" wrote in message ...
