I am having the same trouble as what is in the following post:

http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...42e1acb7a21d59


I cannot use the .IsBroken property because an error pops up "Error in
loading DLL". What i intended to do was remove all broken references
from a project and restore them using addbyfilepath.

For example, in my case, A reference used to exist and it has since been
unregistered and the file replaced with an updated file (which has a new
GUID). The reference is "broken", but in such a way as to be immune
from programmatic deletion. If i try to remove the broken component, I
get the same error that I do using the .IsBroken property.

Is there anyway around this? Any help would be most appreciated.

' This code fails.
Public Sub asldhgh()
Dim ref As VBIDE.Reference, proj As VBProject

For Each proj In Application.VBE.VBProjects
For Each ref In proj.References
If ref.IsBroken Then Debug.Print ref.Name
Next

End Sub
