MS OfficeXP Professional

Whenever I load a file into Exel I receive a message in the form of a MS
Visual Basic Window with the wording "Compile error in Hidden
Module:AutoExecNew" I get rid of it by clicking OK I get the same message
window when ending the file, but then with the wording "Compile error in
Hidden Module:DistMon". Again, clicking OK gets rid of it. Whilst these
messages do not otherwise interfere with the operatiuon, they are a
nuisance, particularly when transferring the file to a third party. Can
anyone help me getting rid of this inconvenience? Herman

Moved the PDFmaker.dot and .xla files. This only solved the problem in Word.
I have now for the time being removed all Adobe programs (also cleared
register), but the proplem originally described still persists in Exel. I
also uninstalled excel and reinstalled to no avail. Maybe any other
thoughts?

Keep looking. You have a file sitting around somewhere, is my guess.

Check out your XLSTART folder(s) for stray Adobe PDF files.

BTW, what version of Excel/Office are you running?

One more something to try.

Could be you have a leftover menu addition from PDFMaker.xla

With Excel closed........

Locate your *.XLB file and rename to *.OLD

The *.XLB file stores any menu and toolbar customizations.

Re-start Excel which will build a new *.XLB file

Thanks Gord, you have been a great help. Found one stray file in "documents
and settings\.....". Transferred that one to "My documents" and that solved
the problem. Last question, can I now toally remove that file? I would
presume so. I do not look for furthar complications. Just need Adobe Reader
to read downloaded documents.I don't really need Acrobate. Any chance of
problems recurring? Incidentally, I run Office XP Prof. ((2002).

Probably safe to remove the file, but why not change its name and leave it for
a few days.

If no adverse effects, delete it.
