[Norman Fritag]

Hi there,
I am looking information regarding Excel 97 to XP migration / conversion
issues ( other than Microsoft support pages)??

Can anyone point me into the right direction (webs) and or email me your
experience.

many thanks in advance

Hi Norman

All your Excel 97 files and applications should work fine as is without any
conversions. The file format and macro language has not changed.

Hi Norman,
but be aware that if you have forms that are resized via
code, I've noticed a difference in the way they are drawn
on screen, in most cases I've needed to add 4 points to
each number, not sure why since 1 point is 1/72 of an
inch, it may be how Win XP shows the window, its no major
problem because its just presentational, but it dose make
some forms look odd and un professional.
