I have a spreadsheet with two VBA macros inbedded in it. The file is in a SharePoint shared folder and has worked daily uninterrupted for well over 2 years. Suddenly this morning, we are getting a Run-time error on both macros:

Run-time error '-2147319767 (80028029)':
Automation error
Invalid forward reference, or reference to uncompiled type.


These macros have not been modified in any way for over 2 years and worked fine on Saturday but now they're not. Does anyone know anything about that error and what may be causing it? I was thinking it was a SharePoint issue, so I tried uploading another spreadsheet into the same SharePoint folder and that macro worked fine.

Thanks for any help!

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
Try adding a reference to the workbook's project (doesn't matter to what library), then compile and save it. Then remove the reference again and see if the problem is gone.

You lost me...sorry, I'm not very good at the technical stuff. Can you give an example of how to do that?

I solved the problem by restoring a previous version of the spreadsheet from SharePoint archives and the macros are working again - thanks to all who viewed and tried to help, I appreciate it!
:cool:
