"show office assistant" greyed out; code suspect
With Excel 2003 sp2, Windows XP-sp2:
I have a file with some code (below) in various procedures to check for & turn off / on the assistant, code I developed a long time ago. The file crashed today somehow. After the crash, the code all hangs there. This has happened now and then, and I could clear it by manually turning the assistant on and running it again. However, Excel now has a greyed out "show office assistant" button under Help, and my normal trickery doesn't work. Can't get it back to its normal mode. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated. THANKS. Here's the code, and the error message: The error fires at oAssist.On = True and says method "on" of object "Assistant" failed. Dim oAssist As Object, ASS As Integer Set oAssist = Assistant If Val(Application.Version) = 9 Then If oAssist.On = True Then ASS = 1 Else Set oAssist = Assistant oAssist.On = True ASS = 2 oAssist.Visible = False End If End If |
