SYMPTOMS
When you try to open a Microsoft Excel for Windows 5.0/95 workbook that contains a Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) module sheet in Microsoft Office Excel 2007, you receive the following error message:
When you try to save an Excel 2007 workbook that contains VBA projects in the Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 Workbook (*.xls) file format, you receive the following error message:
Additionally, although the VBA Converter Pack for Microsoft Office Excel 2007 will convert VBA module sheets in the Excel 5.0/95-formatted workbook, all VBA projects and any COM-based controls that were in the worksheets of the workbook will be removed.
CAUSE
This issue occurs because Excel 2007 does not directly support the conversion of macros that are written by using Excel 5.0/95 VBA. The VBA Converter Pack is not included as part of the 2007 Microsoft Office suites. The VBA Converter Pack must be installed separately.
