Implied Option Explicit in XP??

T

Trip

Hello all,

Quick question here. It seems as though XP is enforcing "Option Explicit"
even though I don't issue this command anywhere in my VBA code. The code
runs fine in other versions of Excel, but in XP it hangs anywhere I have not
explicitly defined a variable's type. Does anyone know why and/or what's
going on? Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

In the VB Editor, is the "Tools->Options->Editor" "Require Variable
Declaration" selected?
Don't know if this would be your problem, but it seems related.

Look elsewhere for the problem, XP does not default to Option Explicit.

If in the VBA editor you check
Tools|Options|Require Variable Declaration
then Option Explicit will be added to each new module, but it will be
explicitly there, not implicitly required.

Didn't think so, but it was "worth a shot" (what do I know, I'm far from
an expert!)..
I tried it on XP and had no problem (doesn't help much, I know).

When it "hangs", is it complaining specifically about not being declared
i.e. what does it do/say?
Is it with just one, or any, module?
