I downloaded some excel games from http://www.happy2-island.com/e/excel.shtml
When i open any of them I get a VBA error saying
Compile Error
The code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems.
Please review and update declare statements and then mark them with the PtrSafe attribute.
I'm running Win 7 / Excel 2010
I've no experience with VBA - These are just some games I wanted to download to past the time.
Is is easy to update and get working ?
Here is an example of what kind of thing needs to happen. Here is some more of an explanation.
If you have no experience with VBA then you may find this difficult. I was unaware of this issue before seeing your thread and reading this page. Excel 2010 provides a new version of VBA that supports 64-bit addressing but I am not sure why the code would have to be updated to be able to be used on a 64-bit system. I tried the first Sudoku game and had no problem. I am using Excel 2007 on a 64-bit machine, so maybe the problem is only evident if you are using 2010.
Can you give a specific example of a game that gives you this error?
Edited to add: I posted a new thread in the Programming Forum, which is more appropriate for this question.
