Hi,

I've created many macros in Excel 2003 and 2007. Now I have a new laptop
with Vista OS and find that some of my previous macros won't run.
Specifically, the macro can start to run but is not performing certain steps
which causes it to error out in subsequent steps. The macro works fine in an
XP environment but not in Vista environment. Any suggestions?

See below for first section of macro causing problems. It is erroring out at
"podate format" because it has not allowed the user to select the proper 5003
Procurement Report to open, hence it doesn't have a podate to format.

I'm one of the first people in my group with Vista and running macros, even
my IT dept is stumped.

Thx Jeannell
