The blinking is driving me crazy

Hi -

I've posted this a few times, but so far, no one has cracked this. I have a large workbook (I'm actually not going to say how many worksheets but lets leave it at 3 digits). Its a cool application, works well except for one thing, at least that I know of. When I open it, it runs the workbook_open code and sometimes the Excel entry in status bar just blinks. I can click around a bit, i.e. I can open Visual Basic, open modules, select text but I can't copy it. Nor can I use the worksheets. It does show a macro as running but I try Ctrl-Break, Ctrl-C and lots of other stuff to no avail.

My "solution" is to copy the workbook to a non-trusted location and open it so the macros don't run. Then, I click to enable this content and it runs and all is good. Other times, I open the workbook and the macros run and then it works fine. I have yet to find a pattern.

I've been asked in the past to post the code, so, here goes....

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    On Error GoTo ErrHandler1:
    
    Dim ErrorTrapped As String
    Dim MSEnvironmentVariable As String
    Dim SizeOfHelpFile As Long

'               To check the worksheet listing contained in the wsPrintAreaConfiguration worksheet against those which exist
'               and provide error checking to ensure that printing and other operations will perform as expected.
'               This routine will run when the workbook opens and closes to ensure the list is maintained
'               and error free. It will test that:
'               1) All existing worksheets in the workbook are listed in worksheets section of wsPrintAreaConfiguration.
'               2) All worksheets listed in the worksheets section of wsPrintAreaConfiguration exist as worksheets
'               3) The list is sorted by MoneyScience Worksheet Type and then Order Within Worksheet type and the SheetID are all
'                  in ascending order.
'               4) There is a Yes or No Value in "Hide For User Mode"
'               5) There is a value in the column MoneyScience Worksheet Type which exists in the range List_MoneyScience_Worksheet_Type
'               6) The column Order within Worksheet Type contains ascending values starting at 1 for each MoneyScience Worksheet Type
'               7) In the User has chosen to Print column, all rows contain either Yes or No.
'               8) Print Area should contain a valid range unless Hide for User Mode = "Yes" or Print Area is Variable = "Yes"
'               9) "Print Area is Variable" should contain "Yes" or "No" and also that there is a valid range in "Variable Print Area
'                  including first row" when "Print Area is Variable" is "Yes".
'              10) Ensure that the value in "Column for Tag Headings" is a valid column
'              11) Ensure that only "Hide For User Mode" = "Yes" have "-" in "Column for Tag Headings".
'              12) Ensure that "Column for Tag Headings" is within the defined print range
'              13) Check to see the column "Offset for Max Value" is within the defined print range.
'              14) See if it is a valid row range for the rows to repeat at thet top.
'              15) See that each entry in "Columns to Hide for Printing" is a Valid Column
'              16) Test for the Right Footer = "-" or it being unique.
'              17) Make sure the variable print area covers the used region.

I suspect there may subroutines I've not includded but if you've read this and want more, let me know.
 

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.
This code is just bad.:)

More than 1k+ lines of code.:eek:

Also, the use of On Error might actualy be hiding problems.

Norie...from your posts, I've no doubt you know what you're talking about. Is there any specific areas you can point me to which are bad and what it should be?

Hi,

Try this trick:

1. In ThisWorkbook module rename your Workbook_Open() subroutine to DelayedOpen()

2. Add to ThisWorkbook module new Workbook_Open() subroutine with such code:
Rich (BB code):

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
  With ThisWorkbook
    Application.OnTime Now, .Name & "!" & .CodeName & ".DelayedOpen"
  End With
End Sub

Regards,
Vladimir

Great trick Vladimir, but say if a Workbook has array formulas over many cells, and it takes about 1 minute to open, is it a good idea to open in Manual mode, if so then each workbk that is open needs to to be closed prior to the target wkbk macro to work, is there a workaround this issue?

I'm relatively new to VBA so what is the core issue and why does it blink?
I did not analyze your code and I won’t make any comments on it, just have looked its structure and your description. My guess is that it’s blinking because it’s hanging. And it’s happens when all Excel windows are closed, and you open workbook from explorer or by clicking shortcut.
If so then try the suggestion of the post #4. If it will help I can provide more comments about the trick.

Hi Isabella,

I don't understand the reason to close other workbooks before running the macro. Workbook can be saved with VBA-disabled calculation of required sheet(s) and it does not calculate at loading even at Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic and volatile functions presence. Restoring of calculation of such sheets can be made by VBA-code after workbook loading and after the macro running if required. But it is clear that at restoration of sheet calculation your 1 minute happen all the same.

There are many examples on the forum with other possible ways to speed up calculation of the sheet, for example formula optimization, data structure optimization, VBA processing instead of array formulas etc. The choice of the method depends from the formulas used, its references, from other details of issue, preferences, skills, and so on.

But it seems that your issue subject is different to this thread one.

Regards,
Vladimir

Vladimir -

It appears the code you provided worked. I didn't know if it did right away as this appeared to be an intermittment problem and it hasn't occured since I put your suggestion in place.

You mentioned you could provide more comments about the trick and I'd love to hear it.

Lastly, I want to say thank you very much. This was an aggrevating problem which cost myself and my client time. I'm very grateful for your suggestion. Nice work and thanks again.

- Bill

Thank you for feedback, Bill.

Let me explain the trick details.
Let’s assume that the workbook with Workbook_Open() event macro should be loaded into Excel.

There are two possible situations as follows:

1. Excel is already open before loading of workbook. Previous instance of Excel application is used in this (happy) case. Excel just creates new window of application for the loading of workbook and its events macros fulfills without issues.

2. No active Excel windows are present before loading of workbook. New Excel application is created, then add-ins' are loaded, after that Excel loads the workbook and triggers its events macro(s). The issue is in the fact that workbook events, including Workbook_Open(), raise before the full loading of Excel which can cause the Excel internal buffer memory hanging (seen as Excel entry in status bar blinks). That is, Excel is not ready to work with its full object model till the complete loading.

The trick for the 2nd case is in usage of Application.OnTime method for waiting of complete Excel loading, in other words for the delayed call of the code of DelayedMacro().

Typically the macro call with minimal 1 second delay looks like this:
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "DelayedMacro"

But we need not wait an extra 1 second and can call DelayedMacro() from Workbook_Open() in such way:
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:00"), "DelayedMacro"
or, the same:
Application.OnTime Now, "DelayedMacro"

Regardless of the zero charged delay Excel will automatically wait from milliseconds up to seconds if it’s required for complete loading, and only after that runs DelayedMacro() in which all the triggering code should be stored.

Cheers,
Vladimir
