How to clear memory to prevent “out of memory error” in excel vba?

Question

I am running VBA code on a large spreadsheet. How do I clear the memory between procedures/calls to prevent an \"out of memory\" issue occurring?

Thanks

Answer is you can't explicitly but you should be freeing memory in your routines.

Some tips though to help memory

• Make sure you set object to null before exiting your routine.
• Ensure you call Close on objects if they require it.
• Don't use global variables unless absolutely necessary

I would recommend checking the memory usage after performing the routine again and again you may have a memory leak.
