I found the sPath and sTemplateName See the screenshot below: ' Get template information Set wsLookup = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(gsLOOKUP) sPath = wsLookup.Range("TemplateDirectory") sTemplateName = wsLookup.Range("TemplateName") Set wsLookup = Nothing What should I do now? XX23 "Gord Dibben" wrote: Somewhere in your code before what you posted you must define and set sPath and sTemplateName Have you changed those to suit the actual path to fsform.xltx? If your code works with fsforms.xlt I would imagine TemplateName is set to fsform.xlt Gord On Mon, 26 Oct 2009 05:35:02 -0700, XX23 wrote: Hi Gord - I followed the steps you told and I am still getting the error message "Financial Macros could not find the template to complete this task. I am sure this is happening with the file I am using 2007 "fsform.xltx but it works fine with .xlt. Also, please note that fsform.xlam is an add-in linked to 2007 ribbon interface. Also, I noticed something regarding the template in the VB code: If Dir(sPath & "\" & sTemplateName) = "" Then MsgBox "The Financials macro could not find the template" _ & " required to complete this task." _ & Chr$(13) & Chr$(13) & "Contact your local Technology Services " _ & "Organization for further assistance.", _ vbCritical, "Template not found." Is there something I have to change here? Thanks XX23 "Gord Dibben" wrote: Can you open fsform.xltx then in VBE select fsform2007.xlam and through ToolsReferences checkmark fsform.xltx. Save fsform2007.xlam I have not worked with 2007 enough to be able to trouble-shoot much. I am only guessing at this.

I am not a VB programmer and just doing testing those to work. Yes, in the VB code, there is a place it says "Financials could not find the Template" and I checked the template file and it is not showing anywhere in the code. Why it does not let me save the worksheet and gives me error message "FS could not find the template". Also, I checked in the add-ins and that file (.xltx) is there and not working. Also, in VB references, Missing fsform.xlt was checked on. So, I unchecked it and still not working. Any solutions to this would be greatly appreciated. "Gord Dibben" wrote: What is the name of the template? Have you changed that in 2007 version? Having no idea what your macro(s) do in conjunction with your template leaves little room for trouble-shooting. Do you have a hard-coded reference to template.xlt in your macro(s)? Gord On Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:06:01 -0700, XX23 wrote: Yes, this template (.xlt) works in conjunction with macro file (add-in) and was told to save it under c:\programs files\microsoft office\templates\other documents on excel 2003 and worked fine. On 2007, the problem now is when this file is saved as .xltx and saved in the same directory and gets the message as: The macro could not find the template to give a name to the worksheet. It works ok if I leave the template file as .xlt in the same directory on 2007. The problem is with .xltx file. I can not figure out how to solve this problem. We are doing this because the macros needed to upgrade to 2007 file formats and sooner our machines will upgrade to 2007. Any solutions.

Don't know what you mean by a "template that works in conjunction with these macros" Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 22 Oct 2009 11:27:01 -0700, XX23 wrote: I have macros created in excel 2003 (*.xla) as an add-in and wanted to upgrade them to excel 2007.

What should I do? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. . . . . . |
