There must be more to the error message than you have shown.

Perhaps more like this.........

Whenever entering Exec, I get the error message: Microsoft Visual Basic:
Compile error in hidden module: AutoExecNew.
on exit, the error message reads: Microsoft Visual Basic: Compile error in
hidden module: DistMon.

Thanks Gord. The whole message I have is "Microsoft Visual Basic: Compile
error in hidden module: Procedures". I looked at the link you send, and I
didn't have the Pdfmaker file as mentioned.

Close excel and in the run command in the start menu do
excel.exe /s

This starts excel in safe mode and suppresses the loading of addins and
files in the xlstart directory.

If that avoids the message, then close excel. Move any files out of your
excel start directory. and try opening excel again. If that cures the
problem, then it is one of those files. Move back individually to
identify.

If that doesn't clear it, then do a similar procedure with your addins.

Try unchecking all your addins in toolsAddins, Then adding them back one
at a time until you encounter the error.

Of course, you know what you have been doing - so thinking of recent changes
may dramatically narrow the items you need to search.
