Noticing some issues lately; wondering if anyone else noticed.
Previously, I could load a user form project, leave it up and running overnight (forget to close it) and arrive back the next day and still be able to use the form and it's controls. Now what I'm noticing, is when a period of time has passed (with user form opened, and system is inactive; not sleeping), I try to use the form upon returning to my desk and am greeted with errors when the user form tries to access array variables that were created when the user form was first opened. The errors I receive, indicate the arrays are empty when looking in debug mode.

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN

sounds odd, can you post the code?
