HRESULT: 0x800A03EC on Worksheet.range

Question

I am getting HRESULT: 0x800A03EC on Worksheet.range method. Number of rows are more than 70K. Office 2007.

Code:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range         


        

Answer 1

Looking at the various responses above, and drawing on my own recent experience (I got this error code doing something completely unrelated -- setting Application.Calculation) I conclude that the same error code is used to indicate multiple unrelated problems. So @Garreh you should probably be asking a new question (not that anyone will be able to help based on the error code alone). I've seen the same thing working with Word interop from C#, where the same HRESULT seems to be used for almost every kind of error. I've never found any satisfactory Microsoft documentation on what the codes might mean.
