Can you upload a copy of the workbook so that we can investigate the issue.
- Phil-365Apr 14, 2022Copper ContributorHi Doug
If I can give you a brief summary I use the program to upload wildlife sightings to a database which is also an Excel Workbook. The different Butterfly, Moths and Dragon fly Species are held on a nother File, so the Workbook opens, writes and saves to two Files. As the error claims that the client was disconnected. I added the Specie data to the main Workbook, so the Workbook that originally held the Specie data was causing the problem of Client disconnected . I would be quite happy to send the Workbook and the code if you still require it. I also use variable to use as a specific Workbook Worksheet detail. Hope this throws a little more light on the subject- Apr 14, 2022I gather that you have worked around the problem by moving the Specie data to the main workbook. Unless there is some reason for wanting to keep it in a separate workbook, there is probably little point in trying to determine the cause of the issue.
