Compile error in hidden module: [user form name] Excel/VBA

C

Carlos

I have created an Excel workbook that uses user forms for data entry. This
workbook is available online via our intranet and several users are
reporting that they are getting a "Complie error in hidden module:
<userform>". I've read the other forums related to the moving of the
pfdmaker.xla or pdfmaker.dot files but I want to know if there is anything I
can do to my workbook to prevent this error from occuring. There is no
possible way that
I can get to every pc with the error and I don't think that my users are
savy enough to make the fix on their own. Not to mention if they are
getting the error due to Norton Antivirus. I should also mention that I have
users using a variety of Microsoft operating systems and office versions.
Thanks in advance for any solutions or suggestions.

If the code works fine on your machine and others, doing the same steps,
then the likely cause is a bad installation of Office. That can happen if
the PC came with Excel pre-installed. Ask the users with the problem to do
an Office repair in Add/Remove Programs, Microsoft Office. If that doesn't
cure, then have them reboot, un-install Office, reboot again, and
re-install.
