"Application has generated an exception that could not be handled" - Excel

I'm working on a spreadsheet and after having added a number of columns with formulas testing the same column of data, I'm running into this error. 98% of the time I change the date to test the formulas excel crashes and I get this now. If I remove the last set of formulas I put it in, it stops, but I really need those. Is this just a computer resource deal? Anything I can do?

That's a program bug, and unfortunately, a very non-specific one. You're likely on your own trying to find an alternative approach that doesn't crash. Of course, a later (or earlier) version of Excel might not have the bug.

Download OpenOffice. Export the data into a CSV file and import it into Open Office. That should lose everything except the data in the cells (ie get rid of macros or hidden special characters that might be the cause).
Hopefully Open Office doesn't have the same bug.

Thanks to you both. I just had to take out one of the computations in one of the newer formulas I put in because it was apparently trying to calculate too much at once with every data change.
