Object LIbrary Versions 11.0 - 10.0

[DonFlak]

I wrote my workbooks on a newer machine with Object Libraries 11.0.
Some of my co-workers are still using systems that only have Object
Libraries 10.0. How can I make my project usable for them as the are
getting an error when they try to run the workbook macro's.

Always develop in the lowest version of software that you will deploy to.

As long as you don't use any of the language elements, object, properties,
and methods that were added to version 11, then you code will work in
earlier versions with no changes required.

I can appreciate that but here I am with what I have. Is there a way
to take what I have and make it backwards compatible? I have learned
the lesson but I have tried saving it in earlier versions and I still
get the same error. I'm just looking for a fix to the current problem
I have.

There is no way to scan code to see what versions with which it a
compatible. The only way to ensure compatibility is to run the code on the
minimum supported version.

Unfortunately, when it tries to run on the older machine I am getting
the following:

When the macro runs the following error appears in a pop-up window.


Compile Error
Can't find project library
with an OK and a Help button (the help button isn't helping)


The terms picSource are then highlighted in yellow showing the error.


With Workbooks("Report.xls").Sheets("Reference")
If .Range("D3").Value = "1" Then
Set picSource = .Pictures("Picture 1")
With Workbooks("NEW-TACS-PLAN-OT.xls")

I have loaded the project on the older machine. When I Alt F11, and
looks at the references it shows Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library
as MISSING.

You have to put the code with an Outlook 10 version on, reset the
references, and save it. Then make any changes on that machine.
