Error of Type 1

Whenever I try to download a report from Quickbooks to Excel an error
message pops up that says: The application Microsoft Excel has unexpectedly
quit because of an error of type 1. Save work in another application and
restart your computer.

Does anyone know what this means? Thanks, [email protected]

Error of type 1 is the Mac OS 8/9 message for a memory violation. The
most common cause is allocating too little memory to XL. With XL closed,
select the application icon, and choose File/Get Info/Memory and
increase the "preferred" memory allocation by 5MB or so, or at least 3
times the default value. Do not adjust the "minimum" allocation.

If this doesn't solve the problem, post a message to the
microsoft.public.mac.office.excel newsgroup. Be sure to include both
your OS version and your version of XL.
