Getting this msg "Excel ran out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas."

[GaneshIyer]

I am having issue with excel sheet which keeps showing me this issue "Excel ran out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas. As a result, these formulas can not be evaluated."

Never had seen this before- pls guide.

@GaneshIyer 

In cell D36 you have formula =30:294001 which means you instruct Excel to return all rows from 30 to 294001. Includes row in which the formula is. Kind of cyclic reference and never ended loop.

If you remove this formula it works.

@SergeiBaklan - Amazing it worked well for me. Thanks a million.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year in advance!

Any chance you could help me figure out whats wrong with my workbook?  I am getting the message as well.  I am a complete novice at excel but am trying to put together a workbook to calculate show estimates/costs for venue events.  I have been reading lots of answers on how to fix this error but cant figure it out.  Any help is appreciated!

I see no problems with your file, it works correctly (at least without mentioned error).

@SergeiBaklan 

I have a problem with my excel error.  The error message is "Excel ran out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas...." I tried many tips and corrected formula errors but still has this error message when I save.  Hopefully you can detect the problem.  

Thanks very much, Sergei

I found two issuee

-  'WB7-STS Structure IPL Cal.'!J473 had reference as =-475:29776.432, I changed value on zero

-  'FWD Cargo Bay'!I35 had circular reference (==I35+I117+I342+I490), changed on =I117+I342+I490

Please check attached file if works in your environment.

@SergeiBaklan HI i have an excel spreadsheet that is showing a formula issue but i dont believe i have any formulas on there. Please can it be checked and either the formula removed or point me in the direction of where the error is. thanks.

@louise21 

That's in 'Open Complaints'!M13

'=+CB1413:MGD141413:M13:MA1413

Not sure what you'd like to calculate here, just commented it. Please see attached.

[#11]

@SergeiBaklan i have removed that figure - it was not needed! thanks very much for spotting that! 🙂

[#12]

@louise21 , you are welcome

[#13]

Thank you

@SergeiBaklan 

I am getting an error as well.

Here is the formula:

=INDEX('VG OF FRISCO-F'!A1:AR263,MATCH('VG OF FRISCO-F'!5:5,'Facility Summary Data'!B6,0),MATCH('VG OF FRISCO-F'!A:A,'Facility Summary Data'!B5,0))

[#16]

@gkcyulo 

Perhaps you mean

=INDEX('VG OF FRISCO-F'!A1:AR263,MATCH('Facility Summary Data'!B6,'VG OF FRISCO-F'!5:5,0),MATCH('Facility Summary Data'!B5,'VG OF FRISCO-F'!A:A,0))

when it works. Not sure what you'd like to calculate.

[#17]

Can you help me figure out what's wrong with my workbook. I'm also getting this error. I understand the logic of your proposed solution, I just can't identify where the error is in my workbook. @SergeiBaklan

@shaunkagawa 

That is wrong formula

'=VLOOKUP('Klabin Hou'!1:1048576,11,0)

in hided sheet 'Combined Klabin'!N60

I commented it. 

[#19]

What would the correct formula be? @SergeiBaklan 

[#20]

@shaunkagawa 

Depends on what it shall to return, I don't know the logic behind.
