Hi
I have a small .XLSM file which crashes every time I try to open it with the message:
"Cannot complete operation; a table cannot overlap ...
Excel then goes away for a while & then stops working.
This applies to all copies

The file has 4 queries from MSQuery all located adjacent on the same row plus a lot of VBA code.
I am reworking the file, with the queries well seperated.
The queries I have in another file but would like to retrieve the VBA code.
Any suggestions ?

Hello :)

My advice is to open Excel and disable your macros and then try opening the file. It might be the VBA that is crashing Excel.

Good Luck,
Mark
