You may run into problems if the version of Excel, or the Office
installation directory, is different on the computers using the workbook. I
spent weeks trying to get the referencing to work out in this situation,
which was made more difficult by the security of later Office versions.
Finally I resorted to using Application.Run to call Solver, as I describe

Thanks Bill. Yeah, I figured out that once you check the box, it remains
checked for that spreadsheet. For some reason I was under the impression
that checking the box was specific to each computer -- similar to
installing
Solver on each machine.
Thanks for your feedback.

If you are writing VBA code to use Solver, simply set a reference to it
once in your project (manually, like you are doing now) and you are done.
If you mean that you need to check to see if Solver is installed on
another
user's machine before you attempt to make calls to the Solver routines,
then include this line of code somewhere at the top of your code:
AddIns("Solver Add-in").Installed = True

Hi,
Is there a way to have code check the "Solver" box VBA? FYI - I
currently
need to do this manually using the following steps:
- Go to "Tools - Macros - Visual Basic Editor"
- Go to "Tools - References"
- Check the checkbox next to 'Solver' and click 'OK'
Thanks!
