Macros written in Excel 97 will not work in Excel 2003
I have written and run many macros in Excel 97 that when I try to run them in
Excel 2003 I get an error message, "Can't find project or library". My original system was a Window 2000 with Office 97 installed. The new system is Windows XP with Office 2003. I am not using any special instuctions in the macros. One of the instructions that it does not under stand now is 'Chr()'. I believe that I am missing a library file or OBL file. I did notice that under the references that the 'ActiveEX type library' had 'MISSING' before it. I don't know if this is the problem or where to find this file. I would be very grateful for any help. |

I am experiencing the same problem, but I do not see the 'ActiveEX type
library' in the resources or any"NOT FOUND" items. Any other ideas?

Run until you get the error. Go to the VBE
Make sure your workbook is the active project (perhaps only have your workbook loaded) It should be selected in the Project explorer in the VBE then go to Tools=References or hit Reset and go to Tools=References No see if anything is shown as MISSING. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Gib Gibson" <Gib wrote in message ...
