Depending on what was referenced, there is certainly a high probability they
will if the machines are basically set up to be alike (such as in a
corporate setting).

Best is to fix your copy and redistribute (if you start getting reports of
problems).

Ya, there was a missing refrence, and un-checking it fixed
my problem. Im now worried about distribution of my sheet
to my users. Are they going to possibly get the same
error i did? Is there a way to prevent it from happening?

Thanks for the replies

Run the code till you get the error.

Make sure the workbook with the problem is the active
**project** (not just
the active workbook).

Then go to tools references in the VBE.

You should see a reference shown as MISSING.

If you don't fix this, it will probably occur in some
other line of code.

Cant find the missing refrence that i would need. Left
()
is also listed in the Object Browser (so it should
technically be there, right?)

But anyways...found a work around for it. Since i only
want the first 5 character for it i set my szTemps's to
*
5. Then copied the strings into there. Being that the
strings are set to a specific length it truncates the
rest
of it. Im just waiting for me to need the right side
of a
string then will have funn figuring that one out.

thanks for the response

Hi,

It is possible from missing library. Goto VB Editor,
click
Tools in menu, check Referencs and it will list the
missing library in your file. Unselect the missing
library
and re-run your code.

Best Regards

Hi there.

Im trying to use the Left() function to extract the
first
5 characters from strings that are in cells on 2
different
worksheets. I understand how to extract the strings,
and
i understand how Left() works. But for the life of
me i
cant find out why im getting a compiler error when i
try
to use Left().
When i run my function i get the error "Compile error:
Can't find project or library". and it highlights the
Left
function call. can anyone tell my whey this is
happening?
iv search the forums, i search the support site, even
checked programming refrence books on VBA for Excel,
but
none talk about a error like this.

Here is what my code looks like if you need to see it.
....
szTemp1 = Worksheets(1).Cells(nx, 22)
szTemp2 = Worksheets(2).Cells(nRange2,
nRange3)
szTemp1 = Left(szTemp1, 5)
szTemp2 = Left(szTemp2, 5)
....
.
