Extensibility Library
 

Is there a way to insure that the Visual Basic for Applications Extensibility
Library is available when Excel is started.

I'm using Excel 2003 on windows XP Pro with all current updates.

I have sheets that different users use & sometimes it's available &
sometimes not.

Thanks

your users may not have enabled "Access to VB project
setting in Macro/Security.

this will disable any calls related to vbaproject and it's properties.

on any normal install they WILL have extensibility dll on their
machines, so i doubt that is the real issue.

If other referenes are missing.. then you'll see
standard unqualified VBA methods e.g. Right("string",1 )misbehave.

Try

With ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References
On Error Resume Next
If .Item("VBIDE") Is Nothing Then
.AddFromGuid _
GUID:="{0002E157-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}", _
Major:=5, Minor:=3
End If
End With

Might be better to do:
Major:=5, Minor:=0
Otherwise you might be caught out by lower versions.

Or maybe even:
Major:=0, Minor:=0

Thank you very much - works great - only thing I had to change
was to move 'Public VBComp as VBComponent' from Option Explicit to
'dim VBComp as VBComponent' in the routines that used it.

Thanks again
