Back again...

I need assistance with my macro as I am running into issues with the max rows exceeding 1,048,576.

The macros current method in order:

-writes a combination of names
-once names are written, it then copies those names into helper columns and replaces the names with a salary
-adds salary together in a new column
-sorts names in order
-removes duplicates

I have enough filters where the number of rows in the end will never exceed 1,048,576...however the macro still has to "write" the names and salaries to determine if it meets criteria. The removal of duplicates and salary over 60000 doesn't occur until after all the combinations are all written. Is there any way for me to continue with the rest of code if max rows written is reached and then loop back to start writing the combinations again... Thanks for any assistance


VBA Code:
Public CalcState As Long
Public EventState As Boolean
Public PageBreakState As Boolean

Sub OptimizeCode_Begin()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

EventState = Application.EnableEvents
Application.EnableEvents = False

CalcState = Application.Calculation
Application.Calculation = xCalculationManual

PageBreakState = ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks
ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = False

End Sub

Sub OptimizeCode_End()

ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = PageBreakState
Application.Calculation = CalcState
Application.EnableEvents = EventState
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

When I first read that, I for some reason thought it was associated with the pop-up box at the end. Thanks for the information.

Debug.Print is a totally different window. It is different than the pop up MsgBox. Two totally different animals.

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).

I realize that now, didn't know exactly what it was, my bad. I see the log now from the one I ran succesfully.

The one that failed (over 3 million) was similar, just didn't get to the wrapping up phase I think.

Nice!

I was just going to say the 'Create all combinations ...' is the first line
...
The last line, when completed successfully will be the:
'xx:xx:xx to process.'

A memory error is not occurring during the macro and had task manager up and the lowest it got was 5.5GB, but quickly went back up after the first couple minutes, so I don't think the Out Of Memory is a problem at the moment as I have not received that specific error again. Any more than the combinations there is on that test I get a "Error 400" which does not go to debugger. So I added a error handler.

I added a on error goto

VBA Code:
On Error GoTo error_handler
before this line of code

VBA Code:
    wksData.Cells(2, lFirstWriteColumn).Resize(UBound(UniqueUnSortedRowsArray, 1), _
            UBound(UniqueUnSortedRowsArray, 2)) = UniqueUnSortedRowsArray

this right before end sub
VBA Code:
 Exit Sub
error_handler:
    MsgBox Err.Description



That line of code is causing a application defined or object defined error per the popup box. I'm not sure why it only occurs with more combos

I will have to take a closer look at the code I have come up with. It appears to 'hiccup' on step 5.

I probably need to delete a previously used array or something. I will let you know after some sleep.
