    troubles with running a plug-in in excel 2016 on a 64 bit system (mac)

    Hi All,

    i'm trying to use a statistical plugin designed by the university i'm studying at, but i'm getting an error message :De code in dit project moet worden bijgewerkt voor gebruik op 64-bits systemen. Controleer Declare-instructies en werk ze bij. Markeer ze vervolgens met het kenmerk PtrSafe. which translated to English means something like: The code in this project must be updated for use on 64 -bit systems. Check Declare statements and update them then mark them with PtrSafe.

    is this something which can be done by myself, or do i need to contact the university (which probably will take for ever) to update the file/code?

    thank u in advanced for your answers/help.

    i've attached the file.

    cheers,
    Sam

    Hi,

    The code uses two API calls which need updating in the UMS_MISC module. I am not certain that they are among those available in the framework on the Mac but, assuming they are, you will need to alter the path to them as well as adding the PtrSafe attribute. They should look somewhat akin to
