Default Run Time Error 1004

I have a user that is using an Excel Application. This
application does have programming behind it, but nothing
too difficult, mainly automatic saves and bringing up
other worksheets when a button is clicked. One user that
is off-site gets a run-time error 1004 when clicking some
of the buttons. I have tested on a computer that was
built exactly like his and do not receive that error.
Would a downloaded screensaver, wallpaper, games, anything
cause this to happen? I don't understand why I'm not
getting the error, but he is.

Thanks in advance,
Trisha

Check that the save operations are able to write to, (maybe a user permssion
issue), the destinations that you want. I had a similar problem and found
that although the files appear on the same server the path to these varied
by user.

Default Run Time Error 1004

How do they run the macro?

If you run it from a control on the worksheet from the controltoolbox toolbar,
then try changing the control's .takefocusonclick property to false.

If that control doesn't have a .takefocusonclick property, then add this to the
top of your code:
activecell.activate

This a bug in xl97 that was fixed in xl2k.
