Speed up Excel VBA Macro Code
Slow Macros: Speed up Excel VBA Macro Code via Manual Calculation
Got any Excel Questions? Free Excel Help
If you have Excel VBA macro code that runs slow, the chances are it's caused by Excel having to recalculate at each line of code. Deleting rows is one of many things that can become painfully slow. This can be overcome very easily by switching Excel into manual calculation before your code runs. Just be aware that if your code bugs out, and you have no error trap, the Workbook will be left in manual calculation and NO properly designed spreadsheet should ever be used with calculation in manual. If you ever get advice to switch Excel into manual calculation to prevent slow saving, closing and data entry...run very fast! This is a band aid approach rather than addressing the underlying cause. If you run any Excel Workbook in manual calculation it's only a matter of time before non-calculated data is read off!
The code below shown how we can switch calculation into manual, run some code, then put it back how it was.
Sub GoToManual()
Dim xlCalc As XlCalculation
xlCalc = Application.Calculation
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
On Error GoTo CalcBack
'YOUR CODE
Application.Calculation = xlCalc
Exit Sub
CalcBack:
Application.Calculation = xlCalc
End Sub
