Hello,

An application developed in Excel 2007-2008 no longer works under Office 365. I would like to be able to test the application with the development version.

Thank you for your help!

Best regards,

Patrick 


Kind regards,

    Hello,

    Which application are we talking about!

    And by using your search engine!

    You need to go to the site where it is available and see if it can be downloaded!

      Hello,

      It’s not because the author isn’t very clear that you should send it back to the Google strawberry farm where it’s unlikely to yield the answer.

      We don’t know if the author coded this application himself from Excel, what tools and which VBA code were used, whether it’s his own creation, downloaded as a ready-to-use package, relying on codes or DLLs that no longer exist...

      We also don’t know if it’s protected and whether we can decompile it to reprogram it to today’s standard, but since these are applications created by individuals or for business applications, the likelihood that they have been continuously updated for 15 or 20 years is quite low.

        Hello,

        Criticism alone brings nothing!

        Yes, okay, but after reading your point, we still haven't made progress, and in this context, we still don't know exactly what it's about!

    Hello,

    Can you share the workbook while anonymizing confidential data

    To share it, click on:

    Click on "Click to add your files". Check that the "Link" is green; if not, click it. Click on "Transfer". Click on "I am not a robot". Copy the displayed link and paste it in your reply.

    "does not work"

    Can you describe in detail the malfunction? Is it a macro error? A formula error? Is there an error message (if so, which one?) or is the result incorrect? Please also specify whether you are using a Mac or a PC (or other)

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Daniel

    Hello @OverSlach34 StatusMember

    When you have such a version difference, it generally stems from two things:

    - Missing library references -> ALT+F11 -> Tools menu -> References

    - The Windows API declaration made only on a 32-bit system while you have likely moved to 64-bit, see then

    Have a nice day
