Hi Mstink,
What have I done to get this message and how can I get rid of it?
Click to expand...

It is caused by an error in an addin installed by Acrobat called
pdfwrite.xla. Find that file on your system and remove it. After that,
start Excel, open Tools, addins and locate the one pertaining to
pdfwrite.xla and try to check it. Excel will ask you if it must remove
it from its list.
