Object Library

GoTTi · Sep 12, 2006

I have written a macro in Excel 2002/XP which uses different MS Object
Libraries (Excel, Office & PowerPoint) and it works fine.
When I save the file in Excel 2003 the references get changed automatically
to version 11 and the file works but when I open the file in Excel 2002
again the Object Library for PowerPoint stays on version 11 all others
swiches back to version 10. This produces errors.

Does anyone have a clue why this Object Library doesn't swich back?

Thanks in advance

The references change based on the Product installed on the system. Are you
getting errors when you run the code or do you get errors with the
reference?

I'm getting the errors when I'm running the code but in the meantime I found
a MS article on that (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/245115/) which pretty
much give me some hints - I think I'm gonna sort this out.

Thank you!

You are in the right direction. Remember that certain objects are not
available in older versions and likewise for newer versions, so a early
binding reference will give compile errors if they are not compatible with
the version you are running the code in.
