Please Help if You Can
Hopefully this is not out of the realm of this group. My application is
written for Excel (VBA), Win/Excel 97 and newer. Several customers reported that the window does not maximize when opening my application (Open procedure includes Window.State=Maximized). However, on their machines we discovered that they had previously downloaded another application for Excel, and once removed, my application behaved as it should. Does anyone know why those other applications interfered with my procedures? What they might have done to Excel to cause the problem? Is it a shared file or registry issue? If so, is there a fix short of uninstalling those programs? Please suggest if you know. Thank you in advance. Jim Kobzeff |

They probably have code that does
Windows.State=xlNormal You assume it is maximized, they assume it isn't. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "JK" wrote in message news:v4Y0e.52225$hA3.41751@trnddc09...

Thank you, Tom. However, these other programs have nothing to do with my
program. It just seems that as long as they reside on the computer, my procedure to maximize windows doesn't function. What can I do to fix or prevent. Thank you.

You said they downloaded another application for excel. So I would assume
it is an addin and is loaded on the machine when excel opens. In that case, they could very well be causing the problem. If they are sitting dormant on the hard drive, then I can't say. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "JK" wrote in message news:GGZ0e.9296$uw6.5266@trnddc06... Thank you, Tom.
