I am doing an extraction in SAP using Excel. But the files are to large, and constantly I get a popup message saying: "EP0:Maximum Hold Time Exceeed". I deal with popups inside SAP very easily, but I don't know how to handle with this type of popup (I think it's generated by the backend, it looks like a Windows popup and the On Error statement is not triggered when it happens). Any idea of how handle this will be very helpfull (:

This is a SAP error message and not excel.
According to this link :SAP error question
it's a situation when work process on R/3 server waits for GUI action. When it exceeds value defined in rdisp/max_hold_time you will get the message. Otherwise the work process would be blocked. You can try to alter the parameter - the value is in seconds or install a new GUI
Regarding installing a new GUI ( i think the current one is 730) another user comments that "New GUI may be better optimized in terms of TCP/IP connection."
To alter the timeout parameter you will need access to SM50, SM51 or RZ11 transactions (according to:Another similar question)
It states that to change the parameter:
Check SM50 or SM51 and see if any users is holding the work process if so kill that processing time then it will be ok or esle go to RZ11 AND CHECK rdisp/max_wprun_time change it to 300 or 600 sec
So basically your program/script needs to wait a little bit longer to successfully complete.
Hope this helps.
