Task Manager process Excel.exe still running
Task Manager process Excel.exe still running
(OP)
Using the code below the script loops through an Excel file and copys a ref number and pastes it to a cell further along the row (I'm just testing at the minute). Once its finished I try to open the spreadsheet but i get error 'File is already open exclusively by me do i want open it as read only'. Then if i try to run the code again another error appears saying i cant save the file do i want to save a copy? I check the Task Manager processes and Excel.exe is still open. So im thinking perhaps i need another line of code that closes the spreadsheet, am i right?

CurrCell = xlWB.Sheets(1).Cells(CurrRow, 1)
xlWB.Sheets(1).Cells(CurrRow, 14) = CurrCell
iTotal + CurrCell
next
displayalerts = false
xlWB.save
End Sub

RE: Task Manager process Excel.exe still running
xlwb.Close(SaveChanges:=False) in order to clear it out of memory. Otherwise, you already have an instance of the workbook loaded into memory, even though your current program ends.
If you're not part of the solution, there's good money to be made in prolonging the problem.
