Problems with calendar control
In my work office (XP professional) my vba code works perfectly,
however at home (XP home edition) with a number of actions (like entering a new name for a cell) I get the message that the "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 2-6.0 SP-4" is absent in the library, and that I should add MSCOMCT2.OCX. I did some preliminary research and found that the reason could be the calendar control I included in the file. (all the other controls are very basic from the standard toolbox, like command buttons and combo boxes). I don't want to have any exotic controls in my file, because my file will be used by people worldwide and I don't want error risks. That's why I removed this calendar control. However, the problem persists, with certain actions it still keeps asking for this library file, and even none of the controls on the sheet which included the calendar control works anymore. Please some advice on how to permanently remove any calendar control references. |

Problems with calendar control
in the vbe with your workbook as the active project, did you go to
tools=references and uncheck any references you don't want? -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Wim" wrote in message ups.com...

Problems with calendar control
The reference I don't want is precisely the one I can't uncheck. It's
the ""Microsoft Windows Common Controls 2-6.0 SP-4". When I try to remove this reference I get the message that that's not possible because it's in use. That puzzles me, because I don't have any exotic control in my file anymore. Any other suggestion? |

to remove it. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Wim" wrote in message ups.com... The reference I don't want is precisely the one I can't uncheck. It's the ""Microsoft Windows Common Controls 2-6.0 SP-4".

Problems with DTPicker
I didn't manage to solve the problem. I thought simply deleting the
control would help, but there still appears to be some reference in my file, because it asks me to create an instance of the DTPicker. I managed to delete it in an older file though. Reading other problem shooting sites, I have the impression that the DTpicker is not so obvious to work with, you need to register it and all, it doesn't work smoothly in excel sheets etc. (size changes etc.) I can probably make it all right for my own file with extra code and registering it, but I don't dare sending the file as such to the other side of the world. Too risky. Thanks anyway for your help Tom. |
