HPC_Finalize method

Performs any necessary global cleanup tasks or post-calculation processing after the calculations for an Excel workbook complete on an HPC cluster.

Syntax

Function HPC_Finalize()

Parameters

This method has no parameters.

Return value

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

You optionally implement this macro for an Excel workbook for which you want to run calculations on an HPC cluster as part of the partition, calculate, and merge macro framework.

When you run a calculation for an Excel workbook on an HPC cluster, the client library calls this macro last, after the library calls all of the other macros.

Implement this macro to perform post-calculation processing and cleanup tasks, such as turning the display of updates to the workbook back on and closing external resources (such as log files or database connections).
