"Application.Quit" Leaves Excel Running In The Background


Answer :

Before Excel 2016, Excel had the possibilities to have multiple Excel files in a single window.

In Excel 2016, it is one window per application.

The problem with your code is that it closes an instance. Based on the fact how the Excel files were opened, this would be either enough or not. E.g., if Excel files were opened in the same instance this would be quite enough.


A bit of an amateur myself and I realize this is a bit of an old thread, but I am wondering if you save the workbook (as you do) but also close the workbook and quit Excel, it may clear up the task manager. I notice you save the workbook but don't actually close the workbook, so it stays open. I ran into a similar issue before and I think this finally what fixed it.

This is code I use every time I want to quit Excel. Usually I have 2 books open, one is a template (which I don't save) and the other is one that was created with data from the template.

ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=True Application.Quit ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False

Are Regular VACUUM ANALYZE Still Recommended Under 9.1?

Answer : VACUUM is only needed on updated or deleted rows in non-temporary tables. Obviously you're doing lots of INSERTs but it's not obvious from the description that you're also doing lots of UPDATEs or DELETEs. These operations can be tracked with the pg_stat_all_tables view, specifically the n_tup_upd and n_tup_del columns. Also, even more to the point, there is a n_dead_tup column that tells, per table, how much rows need to be vacuumed. (see Monitoring statistics in the doc for functions and views related to statistics gathering). A possible strategy in your case would be to suppress the scheduled VACUUM, keeping an eye on this view and checking on which tables the n_dead_tup is going up significantly. Then apply the aggressive VACUUM to these tables only. This will be a win if there are large tables whose rows never get deleted nor updated and the aggressive VACUUM is really necessary only on smaller tables. But keep running the ANALYZE for the optimiz

Can Feynman Diagrams Be Used To Represent Any Perturbation Theory?

Answer : Diagram machinery works also for perturbation theory in classical statistical mechanics and classical field theories. Generally, various kinds of diagrams constitute a pictorial way of talking about tensor products and their contractions while hiding the multi-linear algebra from the layman. In the simplest case, vertices (or blobs) represent vectors, matrices, tensors; vertices have ingoing and/or outgoing ports; ingoing ports denote (contravariant) ro indices; outgoing ports denote (covariant) co indices; directed arcs between blobs give a pair of equal indices summed over; different base spaces ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ different arc types; symmetric tensors ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ undirected diagrams; no labels are needed for internal lines. In many cases, the directed arcs are decorated (as thin, thick, broken,wavy, curly lines), each decoration indicating the presence of a so-called propagator, a function of its label to use as a weight in the sum, which may beco
