Bite the bullet and buy a newer version. Look on Ebay but be sure you get a
LEGAL copy you can register. Your xl2002 should work with xl97 and later. -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Geoff - not as sharp as he thought!" <Geoff - not as sharp as he wrote in message ...

I thought that was probably it. Trouble is my work is controlled by a tight fisted IT department. Thanks anyway. "Don Guillett" wrote: Bite the bullet and buy a newer version.

How about trying to save the file at home as either:
Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 Workbook (*.xls) or Microsoft Excel 97-Excel 2002 & 5.0/95 workbook (*.xls) (from xl2003--but xl2002 should have wording that's close.) The second option actually creates a file with both versions in it--so it'll be double the size. The first option is just the older version. Be aware that there are new things added to excel with each version (duh!), so you may find that you created a macro that has parts that aren't supported in the old version. You'll want to test the heck out of it when you open it at work. As a general rule, it's usually much better to create the macro in the oldest version that you need to support.

Actually, the version of VBA used in Excel 97 is older than that used by
2000 and later, so some code may just not work. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Don Guillett" wrote in message ...

Is this a serious company with a serious IT department? Excel 5.0 is at
least 13 years old. Of course, you're probably running Excel 95 on an old 80586. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Geoff - not as sharp as he thought!" . com wrote in message ...

Other than compatibility with ROTW. Is IT providing accounting with updated
software that tracks changes to GAAP and the tax code? - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Bruce Sinclair" wrote in message ...
