I have a set of Excel spreadsheets that are randomly crashing. Once a
file generates the exe error it is not recoverable. The file and its
intent are heavily relied on for a monthly business process. There
are 28 tabs, about 50 linked files (not a large amount of data on any
one), no pivots or charts, just some formatting for printing, some
permission settings, and the calculations to bring the data into
meaningful information. I have followed best practices to the best of
my knowledge. The problem is that randomly a file will crash and
throw an exe error, and it is not recoverable after that. I don't
know where to start to look to track what is going on when the file is
being saved or opened. I have a suspicion that perhaps some limit on
calculation occurs on the save? But I see Excel updating on the open,
so perhaps the limit is reached sometimes on the close, sometimes on
an open. What events should I look for?
