    Post Excel 32809 and VB issues

    - I have created a Spreadsheet with Macros, its purpose is for Agents to create quotes for their customers
    - This spreadsheet need to used on Agent computers (no 2 computers are using the same OS nor version of Excel)
    - Upon running macros, we keep on getting the error code of 32809, and some unexplainable syntax errors "Microsoft Visual Basic for applications, Compile error, Can't find project or library"
    - It works some times and not others
    - Note: if the Macros work "once" when the sheet is open, it will continue to run the same every time you open the same sheet

    What we have done to try to solve the issues.
    1. Assemble a Win 7 OS computer with Excel 2012
    2. Export the macros and re-import them
    3. Macro - copy to a txt file and bring them back in, one-at-a-time

    Any guidance would be helpfull. Not sure where to turn

    That error is usually down to incompatible activex objects. In your case, I suspect it's the date time picker you are using.

    Re: Excel 32809 and VB issues

    Additional possibilities (your profile says you are using Excel 2003):
    You have come across the 'Active X' incompatibility between Excel 2003 and later versions of Excel. This manifests itself with the following behavior:
    a. Excel 2003 files containing 'Active X' work fine in Excel 2007+ versions of Excel.
    b. Excel 2007+ files containing 'Active X' will generate an error when attempting to use VBA in Excel 2003. The runtime errors I usually see are 32809 and 57121.

    Unfortunately, the workaround I use is very ugly.

    When attempting to use Excel 2003 for a file containing 'Active X' created in Excel 2007+:
    a. Delete all the 'Active X' Controls on each Sheet.
    b. Make a copy of each sheet that had an 'Active X' control.
    c. Delete the original Sheets that had the Active 'X' controls.
    d. Rename the Copied Sheets back to the Name of the Original Sheets.
    e. Save the file. Close the File. Reopen the file.
    f. Recreate the 'Active X' controls.

    -----------------------
    The problem may also be related to corrupt .exd Office files. For more details see post #2 in https://www.excelforum.com/excel-pro...ml#post4810058
