"Out of Resources" Message
 

Hi,

I have an excel spreadsheet that is getting bigger as I develop it.

It talks over the lan to a piece of electronic gear, gets measurments, and
grabs a screen shot (.bmp) of the equipment LCD screen.

In one worksheet, I am going for my third set of data and screenshot when
the out of resources message appears.

I used to be able to close then open Excel to fix the problem. Now that
doesn't work (bigger workbook).

In Windows Task manager, it doesn't appear that I am running out of
memory.

Isn't Excel only limited by your hardware?

Anyway, if you have any ideas, thankyou.
