Hi,
I'm coming back to you with userform exporting issue once again.
Below macro creates new workbook with userform from previous workbook amongst other things
so it export temporary userform files and then imports them into new workbook.
Entire code works works great on my PC.
Unfortunately on other PCs i get error at line srcWB.VBProject.VBComponents("kartaR").Export _

Run-time error 1004
Application-defined or object-defined error

It is sort of like it does not find those useforms there

VBA Code:
Sub ZapiszWchmurze_Click()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
    Dim wbname As String, wbaddress As String
    Dim wbOrig As Workbook, wbnew As Workbook
    Dim shtNames As Variant, sName As Variant
    Dim wbname2 As String
    Dim sheetName As String
    Dim usercheck As String
    Dim pathStorage As String
    Dim lr As Long
    sheetName = ActiveSheet.Name
    lr = 3
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Set wbOrig = ThisWorkbook
    wbname = ActiveSheet.Name
    usercheck = InputBox("Wpisz ponownie hasło", "PODAJ HASŁO")
    If usercheck = "witek" Then
    wbaddress = wbOrig.Worksheets("Admin").Range("A25").Value
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "B").Value = sheetName
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "C").Value = Sheets(sheetName).Range("D16").Value
    ElseIf usercheck = "konrad" Then
    wbaddress = wbOrig.Worksheets("Admin").Range("A26").Value
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "G").Value = sheetName
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "H").Value = Sheets(sheetName).Range("D16").Value
    ElseIf usercheck = "damian" Then
    wbaddress = wbOrig.Worksheets("Admin").Range("A27").Value
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "L").Value = sheetName
    Sheets("ZESTAWIENIE WYCEN").Cells(lr + 1, "M").Value = Sheets(sheetName).Range("D16").Value
    ElseIf usercheck = "admin" Then
    wbaddress = wbOrig.Worksheets("Admin").Range("A28").Value
    Else
    MsgBox "Nieprawidłowe hasło"
    Exit Sub
    MsgBox wbaddress
    
    End If
    wbname2 = InputBox("Podaj nazwę", "Nazwa pliku")
    'wbaddress = wbOrig.Worksheets("PANEL WYCEN").Range("H17").Value
    shtNames = Array("MAG", "SZABLON_SZAFA", "KARTA REALIZACJI", "OFERTA", "Admin", wbname)
    Dim srcWB As Workbook
    Dim destWb As Workbook
    Dim sStr As String
    sStr = wbaddress & "\" & tempFile & ".frm"
    Set wbnew = Workbooks.Add(xlWBATWorksheet)  'Create new wb with a single blank sheet
    wbOrig.Activate
    Set srcWB = ThisWorkbook
    Set destWb = wbnew
    'get kartaR'

    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
        wbnew.Worksheets(1).Delete

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
Do you have the Trust Centre on those machines set to allow access to the VBA project? The code won't work without that.

Solution
Anyone using that code would need to explicitly lower their security settings for the code to work. You may have done this on your machine and not instructed others to do so, depending on policy they may not be able to actually do it on their version of office. The setting you're looking for is "Enable trust Access to the VBA project object Model", but there are very good reasons for not having this ticked by default.

I know that this code requires that I am the permission guy in the company so I will be able to setup this, I completely forgot I've done this on my machine I know it involves the risk of running harmful code without users knowledge. We will see if this helps, I'll test it when I'm back at the office

It works, perfectly and I feel dumb cause I had the same issue on my own machine and I needed to enable this option aswell...

There are probably better ways of doing this that don’t require the permissions changing. An excel template may be what you’re after

I'll give you a brief desciption of the functionality and reasoning behidn it.

I have a main file where all the deisgners log in and create their preliminary quotations, after they finish it, I need to take their quotation to new file with client name on it, and after that, when client accepts the offer I need to create new detailed quotations with all the actual material details provided by the client. after that we need to be able to generate material sheet for pre production. Each seperate project needs to be it's own database for the project.
and at first I didn't need to use user form cause I had everythign coded in the main file. Unfortunately due to unknown reasons the code that auto generated material sheet from detailed quotations did not work when executed from a button and i spent days on this forum tryin to fix and no1 was able to help with this matter. The problem I encountered was that code run great when started from alt+F11, the same code didnt work when it was assigned to the button. I couldn't use activeX buttons cause of co-authoringg. So the only solution was to make a new userform with this code which worked, and then matter for export impurt user form came about.

many many other things didnt go right wiht my applications, I even had an issue where I had to switch all my buttons to form controls from activex, therefore code behind those button was written on the sheet and not the button like it was the case with activex buttons. due to all the sheet copying, sheet renaming, and listings I couldn't use modules aswell which in the end resulted in me having to create macro to create new buttons on new sheet that would reference macros on this sheet, cause when u try to copy one sheet for e.g. a template of some sorts with buttons on it as new sheet those buttons keep the reference to macro from "old" sheet. VBA is freaking crazy and now i generally know why you dont really use it to create app-like products.

I suspect a better approach would have been to create an excel template (xltm) file with your modules, form and everything set up as a blank file without the quotation numbers in. When they're ready to create the customer specific version from the version they have to work with, create a new workbook from the xltm (which will include all the userforms, modules code etc) and copy the values into it that the designers have entered.

I do something similar for a client who has timesheets where the users enter hours, pay rates etc. But he has dozens of different clients, each client has their own specific information and settings stored within their timesheet workbook. However, there is only one master excel workbook template (that containes all the sheets, code, forms etc) so that updates are straightforward - when code changes are needed, we loop through the existing client workbooks and create a new workbook from the template for each one and copy their specific information into it.
