I have a VBA Excel macro which runs happily in Office 2000 but falls
over with the 1004 error ("Autofilter method of Range Class Failed")
in Office 97 (SR 2)

The code in question is
Sheets(3).Range("A4")..AutoFilter , _
field:=7, _
Criteria1:= "*Open*"

This works fine in Office 2000, but all users still using Office 97
report this error (tried both NT and W2K OS's)
I have tried the MS KB and have trawled the web and usenet for a
couple of days now but I have found no solution.
Can anyone help?
TIA
