In Excel 2003, just installed with all updates ...
When I attempt to insert a new object Excel wont let me! I
am using a Barcode application and their instructions are
as follows:
A short description of how to add a barcode to your Excel
sheet: First launch Excel and create a new sheet or open
an already existing sheet. Now go to the menu "Insert" and
select "Object..." from that item list. (screenshot on the
right)
A dialog box appears:
Select now "ActiveBarcode" and click "Ok". Now a barcode
will be created inside your document. This will be a
standard barcode of EAN-13 type. Next change to
the "design mode" of Excel (e.g. use this button
. Now
you can modify this barcode. You can change the type,
text, colors etc. For this click inside the barcode with
the right mouse button. A pop up menu will open:
Select "ActiveBarcode-Object" and then "Properties...".
The property dialog of ActiveBarcode will open. Here you
can modify the barcode as you like.
...........so everything work until I click OK and then
Excel displays "CAN NOT INSERT OBJECT" So is there some
property or security setting or something else I'm
missing? I am a novice so step-by-step help would be
appredciated!!! Runing WINXP Pro, totally updated. Thanks!
