Why will 2003 macro run in compatibility mode, but not when converted to 2007?

Good morning,
I have 6 days to test and rebuild my macros in 2007 before I will be forced to upgrade my OS from 2003. One of my templates has 5 large macros. When testing the first (which I cannot progress beyond), in an .xlsm file, I get runtime error 7, Out of memory. When I run the same macro, using the same data in the .xls file using compatibility mode, I have no problems.

Is it safe to rely on compatibility mode for this very important process?

Any ideas what changes I can make to the existing macro to allow if to work in a 2007 format?

Excel Facts

Excel Can Read to You
Customize Quick Access Toolbar. From All Commands, add Speak Cells or Speak Cells on Enter to QAT. Select cells. Press Speak Cells.
Compatibility mode imposes certain restrictions on the file (eg number of rows is 65536 not the 1million+ of xl2007). I suspect you are running out of memory because of the added burden of trying to copy from/to the 1miilion plus rows in an normal .xlsm file.

There isn't any need to do this to such a large range - you can locate the end of your data and just copy from start to end:

Code:
Dim lngLastRow As Long   'variable to hold the last row with a value
 
With Sheets("YourSheetNameHere") 'amend as appropriate
 
  lngLastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count,"F").End(xlUp).Row
 
  'the above effectively goes to the very last cell in column F and then does a Ctrl+Up Arrow to find the last occupied cell in column F.
  'now use this variable to specify the range you want to copy/paste:
 
  .Range("F1:F" & lngLastRow).Value = .Range("F1:F" & lngLastRow).Value
 
End With

So simple, it's brilliant. I forgot to shift my thinking to accomodate my calculations for the limitless row capability.

Thanks. I will revise my macros accordingly and test.

BTW- love that Firefly episode!

I LOVED Firefly - can't believe it got canned after just one series :(

On the other hand, I have the Serenity DVD to watch this weekend :biggrin:
