I have a workbook with several macros that works beautifullin 2003 but shows
errors in 2000. I had to save it as a template in order to share it with multiple users. What can I do so that the 2000 users will not have errors? Thank you! |

You need to develop the code in the earliest version of Excel
that you are supporting. That means using Excel 2000, or at least not using any features that have been added since then. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "pywhacket" wrote in message ...

You need to develope it in the lowest version of Excel that will run it.
Debug it in 2000 to make it work (mostly just removing features that did not exist in 2000). 2003 will be backwards compatible with 2000 (with a few minor exceptions like pivot tables code)... -- HTH...
