I am using Excel, latest version for Mac, 16.93.1 (25011917), and following a recent update either to 16.93 or 16.93.1 I have systematically an error message if I interrupt a calculation : "Excel ran out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas. As a result, these formulas cannot be evaluated." after this error I must always quit excel and restart which is very annoying. Anyone having the same issue ?

2025-05-26T10:11:50+00:00 Thanks David, appreciate your assistance. I hope we get a fix soon and can continue using Lambdas, indeed very useful.
That said, with the AI revolution, I assume a lot of software plans are under deep review and expect significant changes in the near future.

Our support experience has been disappointing - we provided all logs/repro/explanation, but never received any solid acknowledgement. Now the channel has gone dead, it seems.
Seemingly the issue is related to the speed of the called lambda function and/or the number of lambda functions.
I'd be surprised and disappointed if they deprecate LAMBDA, it is very useful, especially when combined with spill ranges.

Thanks for this update.
Do you have any information on Microsoft's plans for lambda functions? Do you think this part of Excel will be abandoned? Like you I do really appreciate keeping logic sheet based and wouldn’t want to be forced to use other solutions like Python or even cloud-based data processing.
