I would think that the CurDir function is one that is used often enough
that it would be supported regardless of the version

When there is a missing reference or in general a problem to do with
references then
the function it points to (not working as you put it) often has no relation
with the
faulty/missing reference. I find if often points to the left function.
I think the compiler points to the first one it comes across.

I scrolled through the entire list of references and none were
identified as missing. Any other ideas? Is it possible that the Office/
Excel 11.0 OLB files no longer support the same functions that were in
the Office/Excel 10.0 OLB files? I would think that the CurDir
function is one that is used often enough that it would be supported
regardless of the version. Could this problem be related to any of the
common dialog DLLs?

I'd suggest that you go back once more to the offending pc and look for
missing. I'm guessing that you didn't notice it the first time.

I checked the references on the computer where the functions did not
work. The only difference is that it had references to the "Microsoft
Excel 11.0 Object Library" and the "Microsoft Office 11.0 Object
Library", where my computer had references to the "Microsoft Excel
10.0 Object Library" and "Microsoft Office 10.0 Object Library",
respectively.

Usually, this would show as a "MISSING:" reference, but it seemed to
find the references fine. Is there a difference between the two
versions where simple functions like String(x,y) and CurDir would no
longer work?

Does anyone know how to fix this?
