Re: [TRNSYS-users] The problem of Type 62 Calling-Excel



Thank you for your reply, David.

The Type 62 problem happens to one of the computers in our laboratory, which is installed with TRNSYS 17 and Excel 2007.

Initially, we tried to use Excel 2010 on that computer, however, the error of "Access Violation..." happened.

Then after checking the source code of Type 62 in TRNSYS 17, as you mentioned, we found that Excel 2007 has been mentioned in the source code. Then we degrade the Excel back to 2007 on that computer. Unfortunately, the problem remains the same.

I have tried different kind of solutions as follows, but there is no effect:
-Install TRNSYS to the root folder C:/
-Move the excel file to the root folder C:/
-Enable all the macros in the Excel file
-Strictly save the Excel file in the .xls format
-open the security permissions for all the folders and files in that computer (including the right of reading and writing)
-run the TRNSYS programme as an administrator


Is there any other solution to solve this problem?

Kind Regards,
Sunliang

Sunliang,
  Which version of TRNSYS are you using? I use Windows 7 and Excel 2007 and am able to run both examples (as well as other projects that couple TRNSYS and Excel). We did significantly rewrite Type62 for the release of Trnsys17 so if by chance you are using Trnsys16, I can imagine that the link might not work.
Kind regards,
 David

I tried to use the method you mentioned, but unfortunately it has no effect. I think there should be some other reasons for this Type 62 problem.

Please keep me informed when you have found some other solutions.

Sunliang,

 

Sometimes the permissions settings in the Windows OS interfere with program interoperability. You can change settings by right clicking the executable and selecting “properties”. Choosing “Run this program as an administrator” has been helpful for me in the past.

 

This may or may not be the source of your issue, but it’s an easy thing to try.

Dear all,

We have encountered the problem with Type 62 (Calling Excel) in TRNSYS 17.

When we try to run Type 62 with Excel 2007 in Windows 7, an error shows that "Access violation at address.......". This problem also happens for the Example projects in TRNSYS such as the examples of "Sun position" and "Schedule".

This problem has not been happened in the computer with Windows XP and Excel 2003.

I have also noticed this problem by other TRNSYS users in the TRNSYS forum. However, it seems there is no solution available yet.

The following solutions have been tried, but there is no effect:
-Install TRNSYS to the root folder C:/
-Move the excel file to the root folder C:/
-Enable all the macros in the Excel file
-Strictly save the Excel file in the .xls format


Is there any other solution or experience to solve this problem?

Thank you very much.

Kind Regards,
Sunliang
