Crashing Bug in Solver.XLAM for Excel 2007???
If you create an xla (or xlam) file in Excel 2007 and add a VBA project
reference to Solver.XLAM using Tools-References, the xla (or xlam) file will crash Excel when it is loaded. You must also add a VBA module (e.g., Module1) to the addin and place a dummy routine in the module such as: Sub Test() End Sub Has anyone else experienced this problem with Excel 2007? |

You mean you have an add-in that otherwise has no code?

Of course not. It happens from the most complicated case to the simplest
case of no code being present. I simply thought that would be easier to reproduce for problem resolution.

Crashing Bug in Solver.XLAM for Excel 2007???
I haven't used Solver much in Excel 2007 yet, so I can't say anything too
profound. In any version of Excel, I avoid setting the Solver reference, because I don't know who might use the workbook, on what version of Excel. It's not as elegant, but I've found that it's much more robust, to use Application.Run to invoke Solver, as I describe in this article: http://peltiertech.com/Excel/SolverVBA.html YMMV. - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Michael" wrote in message ...

Crashing Bug in Solver.XLAM for Excel 2007???
I'm familiar with using late binding as well but I already have many xla's
that use early binding and don't really care to change them if I don't have to. It's not that I'm lazy but I have other things to do as well. I would not expect this to fail in the newer version.

It's not a major change if all you're changing is how Solver is handled.
