Error in loading DLL
 

I've searched through google and these forums but haven't managed to find an answer anywhere. I have a macro made using Excel 2000 (and works fine). When I try to use the macro on another computer which uses Excel 2003, I get an error saying "Error in loading DLL". The message is very unhelpful since it doesn't specify which dll(s) are missing. Has anyone had a similar problem, and if so, did you manage to fix it? Thank you.

Hmm, it turns out when I moved the file, the references that were set on it were for some reason automatically deleted(?). I manually reset the references again and now that macro works.. but now a second macro is saying "Run-time error '1004' Unable to get the DrawingObjects property of the DialogSheet class"

*sigh*...
is it just me or is Excel not the nicest thing to program macros in. : )

the second problem has been fixed now too...
all that's left is to figure out why the references all delete
themselves when i put the file on a different computer (?)

has this ever happened to anyone ?

What files are you putting on a new computer?
If you are referencing an external VB created DLL you will need to register this dll first on each new machine.

Hope it helps.
