Excel sheet not updating

Postby theclothcat » Tue Jul 25, 2023 8:03 pm

Hi,

I have GBA linked to a spreadsheet with some VBA code that runs 24/7. After running for about 3 days the spreadsheet stopped updating. GBA was still running and looked still connected to the sheet. I am running the latest version of GBA i.e. 1.3.2.6

Any suggestions what might cause this?

I have attached 2 snippets - the error log and link activity if that is any help.

The logs you have posted don't show anything wrong. It at least thinks it has updated Excel. Can you send a diagnostic log from the relevant date?

1) Select Open settings folder from the options menu.

2) Email the log from the relevant date in the Diagnostic Logs folder to admin@gruss-software.co.uk

I have received your logs for 21st - 23rd, but cannot reconcile the times in ExcelErrorLog that you posted with the logs. Are the logs that you posted on the 25th recorded at the time you actually saw the problem occurring? If so shouldn't it be the diagnostic log from the 25th that I need?

I think it was the 23rd when I saw the problem. I have pasted in all the entries in the Excel error log as of today (27th) below. I hope this helps :)

Apologies Gary. After a few more days of testing, I discovered it was a problem with my VBA code that made it look like the sheet was not updating. It was occasionally failing to select the next race in the QPL.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
