Error: procedure too long vba: only on one pc out of 11

Question

I have a relatively long macro. It runs on all but one PC, which produces the following error: procedure too long, or something like this.

All PCs have Office 2010, 3 have Win 7 32bit, 8 have Win 7 64bit. The problematic PC runs a 32bit version of Win 7.

The other two 32bit PCs run the code, so I figured it may not be the problem.

Do you know any solution to this?

Answer 1

I'm not sure how you're not getting the error on all 32-bit machines, but presumably you're hitting this:

"Compile Error: Procedure too large" error message when you try to run a VBA macro in a 32-bit version of an Office 2010 program

First off, you'd want to reduce the size of your procedures. You could break large procedures up into several small subroutines, and call them one after the other; there are some good tips in this answer.

Second, try doing the editing on a 32-bit machine, and that should help keep it under the 64KB compiled limit.
