Default EXCEL VB Macro Run Time Error 1004 - Setting ColorIndex

When you say that other pc is running XP, is that winXP?

I'm guessing yes. If the version of excel prior to xl2002 is xl97, then it
could be a bug in xl97.

If you run a macro from a control on a worksheet from the controltoolbox
toolbar, you can either toggle the .takefocusonclick to false for that control
or add:

activecell.activate

to the top of your code.

If that prior version wasn't xl97, then ignore this message.
