Excel Vba Application.evaluate Error 2015

formulas as strings and have Excel VBA compute them for you. Only recently I discovered that some of the cells in a workbook contained #VALUE? instead of a sound value. After some investigation I found error 2015 vba out that, without raising any error at application level (in VBA), the Application.Evaluate function

failed consistently with this error whenever a particular condition occurred. This condition is related to limits in the underlying software layer

of Excel, the one that runs Application.Evaluate. Apparently this particular error occurs when the parsed function returns a string value having a length above 255 characters. As long as the length of the string is
Excel Vba Error 2029
less than or equal to 255 characters, the return value is the desired string. Above 255 characters, the function "crashes". In my case, I was not immediately attended on this error because I used a Variant to store the returned value from Application.Evaluate (sample code): Dim vValue As Variant vValue = Application.Evaluate("GetData()") ' Error 2015 saved in vValue if GetData returns 255+ characters ActiveCell.Value = vValue If I would have application.evaluate vba used a String to store the value, I would probably have gotten a "Runtime Error 13 - Type Mismatch" with Excel booming out of my routine without any debugging possibility (sample code): Dim sValue As String sValue = Application.Evaluate("GetData()") ' Run-time error if GetData() returns 255+ characters ActiveCell.Value = sValue To catch problems, I now completed code with an If statement (sample code): Dim vValue As Variant vValue = Application.Evaluate("GetData()") If (VBA.VarType(vValue) = vbError) Then ActiveCell.Value = "String Overflow on GetData()" Else ActiveCell.Value = vValue End If There seem to be more Excel functions that suffer from this 255 character limit, but could not establish which. For the moment, I will apply some workarounds until it gets solved by Microsoft. Dutch Like this:Like Loading...

I use the built-in Evaluate method to parse the formula. The nub of it is this function, which evaluates a function of some variable at a given value: Function eval(func As String, variable As String, value As Double) As Double eval = Evaluate(Replace(func, variable, value)) End Function This works fine, e.g. eval("x^2, "x", 2) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23718381/excel-vba-failure-of-repeated-evaluate-method = 4. I apply it element-wise down an array of x values to generate the graph of the function. Now I want to enable my tool to chart the definite integral of a function. I have created an integrate function which takes an input formula string and uses Evaluate to evaluate it at various points and approximate the integral. My actual integrate function uses the trapezoidal rule, but for simplicity's sake let's suppose it is this: Function integrate(func As String, variable As String, value As Double) As Double integrate = value * (eval(func, variable, 0) + eval(func, variable, value)) / 2 End Function This also works as expected, e.g. integrate("t", "t", 2) = 2 for the area of the triangle under the identity function. The problem arises when I try to run integrate through the charting routine. When VBA encounters a line like this eval("integrate(""t"",""t"",x)", "x", 2) then it will stop with no error warning when Evaluate is called inside the eval function. (The internal quotes have to be doubled up to read the formula properly.) I expect to get the value 2 since Evaluate appears to try and evaluate integrate("t", "t", 2) I suspect the problem is with second call on Evaluate inside integrate, but I've been going round in circles trying t
