In my experience, this is caused by a missing reference in VBE
Tools=References as stated by KeepItCool. Nick, I am only responding to
your post to emphasize KeepItCool's suggestion - this problem pops up
several times a week and invariably this is the cause.

A short stop cure is usually to qualify mid with vba.mid, but better to fix
the underlying cause.

Jonas,
Usually when VBA error on such "normal" lines, it indicates that there is
a
compile error somewhere else in your code, but the IDE picks that line,
for
some unknown reason.
Comment out that line, then do a "Full Compile" and see what others
error(s)
are flagged.

I am using the function Result = Mid(Mystring, Start, lenght) in Visual
Basic.
It is working perfect with an english version of Excel.
The swedish version gives compile error "Cant find the project or
library"
Visual Basic is not avialable in a swedish version .

Is it possible that this function can only be used in english speeking
countries?
Anyone else with this experience or a solution to the problem.

There is no problem if I use Mid as a spread sheet function.
Using Result = Application.WorksheetFunction.Mid(Mystring, Start,
lenght)
in Visual Basic does not help.

Unhappy Swede
