Quick question on multitasking
 

I have a Worksheet Calculate code that does several things into the sam
sheet. However when two different events get triggered at the same tim
Excel cannot handle it - and have an error message sending me back t
VB. Would it solve the problem to have part of the code in a Workshee
Calculate of a different worksheet so to therfore have both event
triggered at the same time?

Many thanks

I *assume* that you're using an event handler which contains code fragments
similar to:

Private Sub Name(ByVal Target as Excel.Range)

Application.EnableEvents = False
Various bits of VBA to handle the event and call some Macro
Application.EnableEvents = True

End Sub

If so, I would have thought the second event could not be invoked until the
first one finished and re-enabled the system...?

Or are you using a different approach of some kind?

Quick question on multitasking
 

Thanks Bill - basically my code triggers some actions when some othe
cells either get a value or change an existing value - but the trigge
is not done manually by me by inputting a value to a cell for exampl
but is a result of the sheet recalculations. the problem is a couple o
things can clash with each other and excel doesnt manage to execute on
if the other is being executed at the same time - and if it misses i
doesnt re-execute later as the the event triggering is now gone.
I have tried to split from the code the bit that can clash wit
something else and put into a different worksheet in the same workboo
- not sure it will work but have no way to know till will be triggere
next time.

Best
