Excel 97 vs Excel 2002 coding
I've had problems recently running code from 2002 in a 97 workbook.
Where is the best place to find a list of changes between these versions? TIA -- David |

Excel 97 vs Excel 2002 coding
There is NO comprehensive list of changes. and changes between 97 and 2002 are numerous but in general very solvable. my most common problems: vba6 has more string functions which I often use.. like Replace/Split/Join/Filter/InStrRev) xl2002 has very different sheet protection. xl2002 sometimes has a few extra arguments for methods. e.g. sorting xl2002 has modeless userforms and almost of course you run into more problems when developing in newer versions, to run in older. TIP: had you developed in xl97 you'd had far fewer problems. Probably no compile issues at all. Maybe some subtle differences to a few methods at runtime. TODO: make sure you have option explicit at the top of each module start compiling... debugger will tell you what's acceptable...and you'll need to find a solution everytime it stops. there wont be tht many and most of these changes will not be very difficult. keep VBA Help at hand. post specific questions here. -- keepITcool | www.XLsupport.com | keepITcool chello nl | amsterdam David wrote : I've had problems recently running code from 2002 in a 97 workbook.
