ccompile error in hidden module - error message

[katruax]

I have one form that is giving me fits and I don't know why?

I run the Macro and I get the compile error in hidden module error... I get this alot on various machines but replace the comctl32.ocx, fm20.dll, mscomctl.ocx and mscomctl2.ocx files have always resolved the issue...

Work fine on the persons laptop but not the desktop and pretty much they are the same setup... Windows 7 64bit

Any other ideas what the problem could be?...

I have registered the new OCX files... I didn't unregister first but I've never had to do that on any machine with this issue before... Just register the new versions...

Ideas?...

Thank you,

Kevin

Hi.
You'll need to update the code for use in a 64 bit environment. Un-hide the code by entering your password for the macro, and then modify the WinAPI Subs and Functions.

I don't think this is the case?... It works fine on my Windows 64bit system as well as many other Windows 64bit systems...

In fact this user has a Laptop with Win64 and it works there but not on the desktop....

So being it works on every other Windows 64bit system I've tried surely I shouldn't need to change it for this one computer right?...

They are using CorelDRAW X5 which only has a 32bit version... So they are not using it with CorelDRAW X6 64bit...

Thank you,

Hi.
Is Office installed on the computer it works on?
Hard to debug without seeing code.

I've seen this happen when macros are downloaded and then saved directly to the GMS folder or just copied from the downloads folder.

Right-Click on the GMS file and most likely you will see it is blocked. Select unblock. You may also need to change a couple of other attributes, such as hidden, but most of time it is just blocked.

Be careful doing this because it can break other programs. It's best to download and install the runtimes from Microsoft...

I've had problems with some of my stuff when someone copies and registers older versions of the runtimes in the wrong location.
