Hi Guys,

I'm trying to use some defined functions that I created back in 2014 which worked perfectly then (its been about 2 years since I used it).

Now when I use it, I get the message "Compile error: Cant find project or library.

One of the function uses format and the other use Left

In the function below, I would type =GO( ) select a cell and the result should be for example GO09.

Function GO(number) As String
GO = "GO" & Format(number, "0#")


For the one below, I would type =Fasmonths( ) select a cell and the number should be converted to months.

Function FasMonths(Estimated_Life)
If Estimated_Life < 13 Then
FasMonths = Estimated_Life
ElseIf Estimated_Life > 12 Then
FasMonths = Left(Estimated_Life, Len(Estimated_Life) - 2) * 12 + Right(Estimated_Life, 2)
End If

End Function
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Look into VBE-Tools-References and unselect references started with "MISSING:...".
Usually it's invalid reference to Ref Edit Control.

I solved a problem with the “mid” function causing a compiler error using your, “Look into VBE-Tools- References and unselect references started with "MISSING:...".” However, I wasn’t given any, “Cant find project or library.” Information.

I burn a lot of time with VBA issues generated by Windows updates (or Office update with a Windows update). This “MISSING…” issue was new; usually the VBA modules are deleted from the Excel file. Can you tell me a little about what “MISSING….” is, how it gets in and if there is anything I should do?
