I have two machines one is a Dell with a i5 processor and the other is my home machine duo core AMD process (much weaker processor but has 8 gigs of really good ram while the Dell has 6 gigs of standard ram. When I kicked off the script on my Dell it will run out of system resources but when I run it on my home machine it doesn't. Is this contingent on RAM? Just wondering what the forum thought.

It's been a while but disabling COM Add-ins made a huge difference. I add a ASAP Utility add In and it messed up my Excel when it came to running large array VBA scripts.
