CANNOT OPEN MACRO TO RUN OR EDIT in SOLIDWORKS Professional 2020 SP5.0
Am able to to this at work OK
But at home it does not NOW let me. (It used to be OK, at home)
same macros same every thing that I can tell
something is different.
Could it be a Microsoft VBA thing that is different or something?
How do I check what is the right version of VBA or whatever etc…
I have proper access to “C:\SW Macros” and file locations are OK in SW
message I get is below:
(Note: All macros at work, work, & do not work at home, it is not just this one)
Thanks for any help
edit:
It occurred to me that I did upgrade my MS Office to 2019 (at Home)
It was 2016
could that be the problem?
Yep…this happened to me. You’re right on the money. VBA 7.1 isn’t introduced to SW until SOLIDWORKS 2021 SP2, while the MS Office update installed VBA 7.1. I had to wait until my IT department was comfortable installing SW '21 SP2 to get back to editing / running VBA macros.
Austin,
Thanks.
That is what I thought. But I have looked and looked
For any info that supports that BUT can not find any
I am sure it’s true but just wanted to see if it was
mentioned any where on the official SW sites
or if anyone else has/had that problem.
I cannot find anything!
Seems to me to be a pretty big problem!
At least for me…
They both describe a problem installing an older version after a newer one, particularly, SW 2021 SP2, has been installed
BUT They give insight as to how to remedy my situation. Where I think in my case MS Office 2019 installed the “BAD” or uncooperative VBA 7.1
Solution is to uninstall VBA 7.1
and then do a modify for SW 2020 choosing to “change” then “repair” the install of the SW 2020 SP 5.0
