Default Object Library References not transferring

I have an Excel VBA project that I need to transfer to other users (via
email). When they receive my Excel workbook, certain functions are not
working properly (e.g. the UCase() function). I suspect that not all of the
references to Object Libraries I'm using are transferring properly. I'm only
using standard Microsoft libraries so I think perhaps the paths are just
different on the user's PC.

Is there any way to ensure that references to Object Libraries are
maintained when a workbook is transferred to another PC?

Thanks.

Most likely the cause of your problem is using the latest version of
references, when your useres only have older versions. It is often a good
idea to use older versions of the libraries to ensure that your references
will exist on the host system.

Thanks, Jim. I will give this a try. I'm not sure it will work though
because the only user I've sent this to so far has the same version of Excel
that I have. I'm having him send me a screenshot of his references to see
where the problem is.

Service packs alone can cause the problem even if the version is the same...

Interesting point. I'll definitely look into that.
