MS OfficeXP Professional
Whenever I load a file into Exel I receive a message in the form of a MS
Visual Basic Window with the wording "Compile error in Hidden Module:AutoExecNew" I get rid of it by clicking OK I get the same message window when ending the file, but then with the wording "Compile error in Hidden Module:DistMon". Again, clicking OK gets rid of it. Whilst these messages do not otherwise interfere with the operatiuon, they are a nuisance, particularly when transferring the file to a third party. Can anyone help me getting rid of this inconvenience? Herman |

Moved the PDFmaker.dot and .xla files. This only solved the problem in Word.
I have now for the time being removed all Adobe programs (also cleared register), but the proplem originally described still persists in Exel. I also uninstalled excel and reinstalled to no avail. Maybe any other thoughts? "Gord Dibben" <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote in message ...

Keep looking. You have a file sitting around somewhere, is my guess. Check out your XLSTART folder(s) for stray Adobe PDF files. BTW, what version of Excel/Office are you running?

One more something to try.
Could be you have a leftover menu addition from PDFMaker.xla With Excel closed........ Locate your *.XLB file and rename to *.OLD The *.XLB file stores any menu and toolbar customizations. Re-start Excel which will build a new *.XLB file Gord On Sat, 23 Apr 2005 08:52:30 -0700, Gord Dibben <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote: Herman Keep looking.

Thanks Gord, you have been a great help. Found one stray file in "documents and settings\.....". Transferred that one to "My documents" and that solved the problem. Last question, can I now toally remove that file? I would presume so. I do not look for furthar complications. Just need Adobe Reader to read downloaded documents.I don't really need Acrobate. Any chance of problems recurring? Incidentally, I run Office XP Prof. ((2002). Herman "Gord Dibben" <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote in message ... One more something to try.

Probably safe to remove the file, but why not change its name and leave it for a few days. If no adverse effects, delete it.
