    Office 2019 Killing VB in Normal.DOTM

    Hi All,

    Recently Office 2019 has been forced upon us. We have been using the same custom Normal.DOTM for 4 years now, however the file is no longer loading. I have included it here in a zip file.

    Full disclosure, I did not make this.

    what office versions were you using previously?

    i would try recreating the template in a new file, copy and paste the code, from a machine where it can open
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed

    i did edit my previous post

    if the file still will not load, try commenting out procedures or removing modules to see if it is a specific problem

    have you tried any other .dotm files?

    Funny, I'm going through the same problem. Before I had an app that worked ok, but after I upgraded to office 2019 ... it stopped working. Even an addition I had created to read Access tables has stopped working as well. Will you uninstall office 2019 and install office 2016?


    and Database Engine 2016 is not installing
