Hi all,

When I run a macro Excel becomes unresponsive - hope you could help. The code is made to remove all styles in the document. I suspect that either I have an error in a code, forgot one of the 101 VBA steps or perhaps it is just too much to process for the program and some modification are required.


  • the worksheet is saved in .xlsm format;
  • automatic calculations are turned off;
  • the file is saved locally on my PC, not in an archive.

I am using a Microsoft office 2013, also tried in MS Office 2010. Tried finding solution ideas in other threads but the search was unsuccessful.

Many thanks for your help.

Code:
[TABLE="width: 620"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="class: code"]Sub StyleKill()
     Dim styT As Style
     Dim intRet As Integer
     On Error Resume Next
     For Each styT In ActiveWorkbook.Styles
         If Not styT.BuiltIn Then
             If styT.Name <> "1" Then styT.Delete
         End If
     Next styT
 End Sub[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
try this
Code:
Sub StyleKill()
     Dim styT As Style
     Dim intRet As Integer
     On Error Resume Next
     For Each styT In ActiveWorkbook.Styles
         If Not styT.BuiltIn Then
             If styT.Name <> "1" Then styT.Delete
         End If
       [COLOR=#ff0000]  Application.StatusBar = styT[/COLOR]
     Next styT
[COLOR=#ff0000]     Application.StatusBar = ""[/COLOR]
 End Sub
watch the bottom left of the screen and see if the count changes
