VBA Excel: Clear thecontent of spreadsheet
Hi X-perts,
I am using
Set Wcurr = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("t
Wcurr.Cells.Clear
The worksheet "test" is hidden. Sometimes, the worksheet is not cleared..... I cannot find the reason, though tried to debug it many times - step-by-step.
What could prevent worksheet of being cleared?
Thanks

HI Kevin,
it would be an easy task, if I could determine the exact conditions. It happens from time to time.. It DOES run the code, because I can see both the new content and the old as well.
The worksheet is not protected.....It happens only after I run a lot of other macros, stochastic simulations etc. None of these macros are supposed to touch that spreadsheet.
Any ideas?

Thank you guys,
I have tested a lot of things with no success at all. The only solution that seems to be working 100% is to delete a sheet and add a new one. Since excel doesn't delete names when deleting sheets, I have to delete all names with #REF.
still, it is a mystery for me, but I cannot understand what the problem with .cells.clear could be. Typically, it happens after a "heavy" excel application use, but I am not able to spot the pattern.

Since you didn't answer any of my questions, I can't be much more specific, but of you are running 2003 and it is the bug I mentioned, there is a hotfox available; if you are on 2007, there isn't yet.

Sorry...
I am running Excel 2007 SP2
The content of all cells appears in the formula bar .
The only symptom is that a new content overwrites the old one.
Also, when writing a new content, it doesn't change range names, i.e. the names are the same as of old content.
The result of this mess is:
a) new content is written over old content
b) names are not changed as should be when writing new content (under normal conditions old names are replaced by new ones)
That's it...
