I posted on a similiar topic yesterday about code running fine on
Excel 2003/XP and not running on Excel 2007/Win7. Well, I got everything to run on 2007 if the Excel 2003 file is saved in .xlsm format (xlsx bombs) Now the problem is the .xlsm file sent back to Excel 2003 loads fine, except the custom menu pulldown can no longer find the macros linked to it. If the user launches the macros from the the Tools/Macro/Macros path, everything works fine. However, the custom menu on the menubar is broken. So, to recap. The .xls file runs fine on Excel 2003, but the not on 2007. The .xlsm file runs fine on 2007, but not on 2003. The code is identical in both versions. Does anyone have a method to enable cross version compatibility (so that I only relelase and maintain one file) or do I have to caution the user base to use a version aligned to their version of Excel (and distribute .xls and .xlsm versions)?
