Hi Newsgroup

I have a problem and I don't know how to handle.

I have received a File from a friend which was originally made in Excel
2000. I have 2003 installed.

For some updates I made the following function in his file:

Public Function DateAsText(d As Variant) As String
DateAsText = Format(d, "dd.mm.yyyy")
End Function

In the Excel Cells i use this function like '=DateAsText(AC256) several
times

So. On my PC everything works fine. But when I send it to my friend to try
he has big errors because his excel can't find the command Format...

So I tried this on a PC with office 2000 installed and didn't get this file
opened because excel every time has fatal errors.

Then I deactivated Macros for having a look what happens. Following
situation is given:

When I use the file of my friend and opening VBA-Editor for research i found
out that intellisense don't work and the function Format is not supported (I
have macros activated)???
But on the same machine, when I open Excel and create a function like
written above intellisense works fine and the function is supported.

Is there a problem with the file, format or has someone an idea how to
handle this?

Thanks alot.

Best regards
