Excel with game is stuck in a loop
I'm at wk and we found a Excel file that contains a golf game in it.
Mine works fine, but some associates of mine will open the file and the game just runs off in an infinite loop. I'm hoping some one here can help. Thanks, James |

It's not like you gave a lot of information to go on. Are you talking
about different versions of Excel (say 2000 vs 2003)? Just guessing - a kludge that sometimes works is to sprinkle some DoEvents statements in the offending loops.

I believe it's 2000. I did not create this file but just received it through an E-mail. I open it and it works fine, but a few guys that received it, and open it, then it starts it's looping thing. I think that it's something to something that messes with Excel, like there computer has some issue, the file works fine for me and everyone else I know that plays it. I was hoping someone may have seen this before and new a fix. or maybe I need to see able a patch for this. But to see the source or the code to this I don't know how. I an proficient w/ manually working Excel, the code witting is a poor average on my part. |
