Excel XP incompatible with Excel 2003

[Jos Vens]

Hi,

Does anyone know of some incompatibilties between the XP version en the 2003
version of compiled excel code (VBA)? My code is about 5Mb compiled.

I have this experience: most of the time, my code (developped under XP) runs
both on office XP en 2003, but sometimes excel crashes on startup with
office 2003. However, if I compile the same code under office 2003, it does
not crash anymore on office 2003 but it crashes on office XP.

Can it be that the presence of servicepacks in office 2003 are necessary or
in contrary cause the crash?

Thanks for your advice.
Jos Vens

I have heard that if you have previously not used the extension for your
objects, it may cause problems in vb.net

example:

Textbox1 instead of Textbox1.Text
label1 instead of Label1.caption
