Runtime error 424 in Windows 8 environment
I have downloaded a workbook with some macros from an insurance company. It runs perfectly well on both Excel 2007 and 2010 on a Windows 7 platform, but when I try it on a Windows 8 platform, I get Runtime error 424 in both Excel versions.
The code is password protected so I can't debug. The insurance company can't or won't help. Has something changed from Windows 7 to 8, like names of DLL libraries or something like that? Jan |

hi Jan,
have you checked if there are missing libraries (menu/ tools/references)? isabelle Le 2013-08-18 05:14, a écrit : I have downloaded a workbook with some macros from an insurance company.

if there are missing libraries, uncheck them and save your file

I have send it to your adress. (Sorry for the delay answering; my internet connection imploded.) I was unable to break the password for the spreadsheet. Passware says "Invalid format" for the encrypted VBA content. Sorry. -- She heard the grass growing, and the sound of worms below the turf.
