Missing library in Object Browser

[Jo Winchester]

I am looking at an issue with an Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet contains
4 forms, two of which are throwing up errors.

The code that is causing the issues is as follows:

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.questdate.Value = Date
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.Startdate.Value = Date
Me.Enddate.Value = Date
End Sub

The problem is intermittent. We work in a published Citrix Environment,
with Windows 2000 servers hosting a published desktop. We are running Excel
2000 on all servers.

On some servers, the spreadsheet works as expected. On others it fails.

On the servers that work, it is possible to open Object Browser, search for
questdate, startdate or enddate, and it returns:
Library: f3dynamic
Class: Userform
Member: <searchstring>

On the servers that the code doesn't work on, no results are returned.
I have search on a working server for files called f3dynamic, but no results
are returned.

All access to our servers by users is via ICA connections. Tests have shown
the following results:
Launch ICA connection with standard user account - Spreadsheet errors
Launch ICA connection with a high priv (domain admin) account - Spreadsheet
errors
Launch RDP connection with a high priv (domain admin) account - Spreadsheet
works as expected, f3dynamic library can be viewed, and spreadsheet is then
OK for all other users.

I have tried filemon and regmon monitoring, without much success.

Can anyone suggest any further next steps to resolve this issue?

Hi Jo,

With the workbook in question active, run the problematic code

When the code errors, go to the VBE and select the project in the Project
Explorer Window

Hit the reset button and look at the Tools | References list

Look for any references marked as "MISSING".

Either uncheck the reference or, if the reference is needed, try the browse
button to locate the library,

Norman,

Thanks for your reply. I have checked what you have suggested, and there
are not any references marked as "missing".

Any other thoughts or suggestions much appreciated!
