Using Macros across different office versions
Hi,
I have an excel speadsheet that conatains a macro which performs some automation tasks. The Macro was originally written with Office XP on a Windows XP System. The idea is something like the following: 1. Original template file opened (Read only) by party X who enters some info into a form 2. When the command button in Excel is clicked a copy of the workbook is saved and attached to an email which is sent to Party Y 3. Party Y who is using Office 2003 opens the sheet attached to the email, makes some further changes to the form, then clicks the button again. This saves a new copy and attaches the new copy to an email which is passed back to Party X. The problem is that the orignal workbook has "References" to various Microsoft Office 10 Object Libraries (Excel and Outlook). When this copy is opened using Office 2003 these references are updated to point to Microsoft Office 11 Object Libraries and the Macro runs fine but when this is saved and passed back to Party X as in stage 3 mentioned above the object Libraries (specifically the Outlook Object Libraries) don't revert back to Microsoft Office 10 Libraries as hoped. So in short how can I get a macro saved in Office 2003 to work in Office XP? Any help on this would be appreciated. Paul |
