    VBA run time error 32809 in some laptops

    I created a xlsxm with some userforms and considerable automation. The file works fine in my work and home laptops and some of my peers laptops at work. Now some other folks are getting a Run-Time error '32809' Application-defined or object-defined error message.

    When tracing the code I was able to pinpoint the issue with a specific Tab (named "Data Sets" which I already renamed to "DataSets"). I also replaced references on Sheets("Data Sets") for Sheet6 - This latest step made Excel crash on the folks whom had the 32809 error.

    Additional input on Error 32809 is vague. As far as I have been able to investigate, is generated by a Microsoft update that was delivered back in December 2014. (See https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Fo...forum=exceldev).

    Any idea on how can I fix this issue other to point corruption in this Data Sets tab?

    Re: VBA run time error 32809 in some laptops

    There has been a few people with similar issues over the past week or so. One common issue, especially if using ActiveX, is that the Sheet, Workbook, UserForm etc., names are being "reversed" so to speak in their code. Meaning that "Data Sets" or "DataSets" becomes "Sets Data" or "SetsData". Check your code on the problematic laptops and see if this might be part of the issue. Check the code closely, this may not be the only wording that has been changed in the code. No idea why it is happening, but I have helped a couple of people with it in the past week.

    You don't have to add Rep if I have helped you out (but it would be nice), but please mark the thread as SOLVED if your issue is resolved.
