    Error: Excel cannot complete task with available resources???

    HELLLLP!

    I am trying to add rows at the top of a worksheet through code and everytime, I get the error "Excel cannot complete this task with the available resources, choose less data or close other applications". I am doing this on a sheet that has no formulas or formatting only raw text data and it only had about 30 lines of data on it. I then tryed it on the same worksheet with no data on it and I still get the same error. I tried doing it without using my code and get the same thing! This is driving me insane!!! Please if anyone has a solution, I would be most appreciative. Thank you all so much.

    Post a workbook with sample data and layout if you want a quicker solution.

    I guessed that.
    My "solution" to a similar problem: Always save as Excel2003 workbook, unless you reaaly need the full sheet size, and then you are stuck!

    Post a small example of the data (or the sheet) so we can try to replicate?
    Cheers,
