Default Running Excel 2000 VBA Application on Excel 2003

Given that everyone seems to have trouble running previously good code on XL
2003, I'll stick with my trusty 2K version for a while yet.
#1: A control(s) is missing from XL2003 box that is present on XL2K box.
#2: As the message says, you have an error the routine modText. Check the
code.
#3: Check the ToolsReferences and uncheck and note those marked as
"Missing". Seems like the MS OWC is not installed.
This is probably the cause of #1 and #2 . Either install this (I guess it is
an optional install in Office 2003), or do not use those controls from this
library.

Hi Nick,

The 1st error displayed as the appl opened, & read:
"Could not load because an object is not available on this machine."
The error message title was "Microsoft Form"

After clicking the error message OK button, the appl
opened. It appeared normal, but there are no VBA
controls or functionality imbedded in the worksheet.

When I attempted to activate one of the macros
(via an image with the macro assigned to it), another
error message displayed the following:
"Compile error in hidden module: modText"
The error message title was "Microsoft Visual Basic"
"modText" is the name of one of the modules in the appl.

When I tried to compile the code, another error message read:
"Compile error: Can't find project or Library."
The error message title was "Microsoft Visual Basic"

Also, these are the object libraries that are referenced
in Excel 2003 where I'm trying to run the appl.
- Visual Basic For Applications
- Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library
- OLE Automation
- Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library
- Microsoft Office 11.0 Object Library
- Missing Microsoft Office Web Components 9.0
- Ref Edit

I have the objects' DLL & OLB files on my Excel 2000 PC.

Do you know if I can simply copy these files to the
Excel 2003 PC, and then set references to those
objects from within the VBE? Or, do I have to use
the Excel 2003 installation task?

Or, is this not even part of the solution?
