Default Excel Basic

Dear Experts,

I have problem in the excel visual basic when I €˜Add workbooks it will show error €˜-2147023067 with description €˜Automation Error. This error occurred in few computers with windows 98 OS only. Part of my source code for excel basic here. What could be the problem? Please kindly guide me how to rectify the error.

Dim ExcelWorkbook As Excel.Workbook
Dim ExcelSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Set ObjExcel = GetObject("Excel.Application")
If ObjExcel Is Nothing Then
Set ObjExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
End If
If ObjExcel Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "You must have Microsoft Excel 97 or 2000 loaded on this machine to use this sample", vbOKOnly + vbCritical, "Error"
Exit Function
End If

Set ExcelWorkbook = ObjExcel.Workbooks.Add 'error occured here

Set ExcelSheet = ExcelWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
ObjExcel.Visible = True
ExcelSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible
ExcelSheet.Cells.Font.Name = "Arial"
ExcelSheet.Cells(1 + j).ColumnWidth = 3 'Line Number
ExcelSheet.Cells(2 + j).ColumnWidth = 7 'Model Number

I would appreciate if I get the guidance .
Thanks and Regards with
