Hello All
I am running Office2000 under Windows 2000 professional.
Until recently I have been using an excel add-in without a problem, but then
on Tuesday it stopped working - whenever I load excel I get a pop-up window
headed 'Microsof Visual Basic' and the message is "Automation Error -
Unspecified Error". The options are OK or Help - but clicking Help gives no
further info at all! Clicking OK load the 'Microsof Visual Basic' window,
which, when I close it, tells me that this will stop the debugger. I am then
returned to excel, which works fine except without the add-in.
I know that the add-in file itself is OK, because many other workstations
use it with no problems. Also my registry keys look OK - same as at other
workstations where the add-in works, and my list of references match those
at the other worstations. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the add-in a
number of times, same result.
The "Automation Error - Unspecified Error" message error occurs at the
follwing times:
at the very end of running the installation of the add-in
when initially loading excel (at which time the add-in is ticked in the list
under tools > addins
when I click on Tools > Synergy Reporting Path (this appears as the first
item under tools)
when I click OK after deselecting the add-in (in the list under tools >
addins)
Having deselected the add-in, excel works fine.
I hope someone can suggest what the problem might be - it's got me (and more
significantly the author of the add-in) stumped!
Many thanks
