Visual Basic References

[Jason Zischke]

Hi all,

I want my program to automatically install all the applicable references and
I found a bit of code that looked like it would work however it didn't it
came up with 'error 1004 Programmatic access to Visual Basic Project is not
trusted'.How can I get arround this, below is my code.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'Visual Basic for Applications
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA6\VBE6.DLL")
'Microsoft Excel 11 Object Library
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\EXCEL.EXE")
'OLE Automation
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile
("C:\WINDOWS\system32\STDOLE2.TLB")
'Microsoft Office 11 Object Library
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE11\MSO.DLL")
'Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\WINDOWS\system32\FM20.DLL")
'Microsoft Office Web Components 11.0
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Components\11\OWC11.DLL")
'Microsoft Office Web Components 9.0
ThisWorkbook.VBProject.References.AddFromFile ("C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\MSOWC.DLL")
End Sub

Thanks in adavnce

Here is an excerpt from Chip Pearson's web site...

NOTE: In all versions of Excel, the VBProject must not be protected. If it
is, these procedures will fail. There is no programmatic way to unlock a
locked project. In Excel 2002, you must have "Trust Access To Visual Basic
Project" enabled. To enable this setting, go to the Tools menu in Excel,
choose Macros, Security, then the "Trusted Sources" tab, and put a check next
to "Trust Access To Visual Basic Project". Otherwise, you will get errors.

Hi Jason,

Excel 2002 added a new security setting was added whereby you must grant
access in order to manipulate objects that are part of the VBProject with
VBA.

From the menu Tools/Macro/Security, select the Trusted Sources tab and check
"Trust Access to Visual Basic Project".
