Do you know where I could find the list of things that
where working perfectly under Excel 97 and that are not
working anymore under XP.

We just migrated from 97 to XP (big step I know) and are
experiencing the real meaning of pain... half of our
workbooks (all having VBA code) are not working
properly... and the cause of those different bugs will
not be mention here, too much, too different, unknowed...

We do not care if it is a book or a site... anything else
then void would be great

Stef,

Didn't you know all versions are compatible? <g
It's not very funny however.
I don't know of any one place to look, but I can give you a very few items.
I started a list, when I installed Office 2002, but gave up on it.

Font spacing is not the same, but your routines should still run.
Use of .OnAction arguments will fail, you will have to do something
different.
Hyperlink TipText messages are assigned differently.
