Hi Rafael,

On the Compile tab of the project Properties window, I've set Option Strict to On and got two compile errors:

- at Return "No hay datos"
- at Return ex.Message

These are two "instances" of the same error: if the return value of the UDF is of a certain type, you must not return a value of some other type. To bypass this, try to change the function definitions so that the function return Object, not double, say:

Public Shared Function A_Cargos(...) As Object

In addition, consider returning an Excel-recognized error value, say AddinExpress.MSO.ADXxlCVError.xlErrNA or AddinExpress.MSO.ADXxlCVError.xlErrValue.

Hi all, I have solved the problem of my UDF´s , followed your advice and converted all UDF to return an Object and turned on Option Strict, but the problem persisted, any way those where good advices that I incorporated into my code.

The real problem was that each time one of my functions was calculated, a database connection was created then closed, but never disposed, so after 70 or 80 recalculations I think the memory just could not take any more.

The problem was solved when I added the dipose method to my connection, command and reader objects.

Thanks for your help
