Suddenly I'm getting
System Error &H80004005 (-2147467259). Unspecified error
and can't really do anything without the error repeating.
I tried opening the workbook holding down shift (also tried control key) but the error still came up.
Can I open it someone to Save Forms etc to attempt a rebuild? Or is there something better to try?
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
In searching the internet, I found this article, which suggests the issue could be due to a missing add-in.

I would check your VBA references to make sure that all necessary libraries and add-ins are selected.

Thanks for the reply Joe. It happened after save and close, when next run. Had been fine up to that point.
The error msg would constantly reappear. After closing it several times Excel would report Out Of memory.
It always showed when viewing object on a particular Form, or trying to Export it. So I removed that Form and the error went away.
I'd done much work with it, but was able to repeat/rebuild on a Backup and we seem to be back to normal.
I hope it doesn't happen again.
