Have you tried setting a reference to Windows Script Host Object
Model?

In the VBA IDE (press Alt-F11), go to Tools References and look for
"Windows Script Host Object Model". If you can't find it, click Browse
and go to the system32 folder and look for wshom.ocx. Did you find it?

This is not technically an Excel object, but I'm having a problem with

OS, Excel Version 2003).
The code fails on a line like this:
Set fso=New FileSystemObject
or set fso=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
The error is Automation Error The specified module could not be found.
If I go to Tools-References on the problem machine, it doesn't show
any missing referenced files. *Also, if I go to the Object Browser and
search for filesystemobject, it finds it. *Intellisense similarly can
look up the object. *However, I get this error indicating that it
