Automation Error Excel 2013
by Forms up vote 6 down vote favorite 4 After installing all latest windows updates my Excel VBA code is showing an automation error at the very start of the first module. It contains some forms as well as numerous modules of VBA code. However, when removing the forms (and associated code) everything is fine. The same thing happened about a year ago after some other windows updates.
Excel Automation Error Exception Occurred
Back then deleting the .exd files did the trick, but the current updates (including Service Pack 3) seem to be different. What is going on and how can I get the forms to work? All the code is unchanged and has survived all previous windows/office updates. Running Windows 7 (same happening on Vista machine) and Office 2007. windows excel vba ms-office windows-update share|improve this question asked Aug 15 '12 at 14:38 Rob 4343716 add a comment| 11 Answers 11 active oldest votes up vote 16 down vote accepted I used to see this a lot with Visual Basic and Crystal Reports; either due to a bad deployment or DLL Hell. So, my guess is that it's not the code but perhaps some 3rd party controls (OCXs, DLLs) you're using. Check your References (In VBA IDE, click Tools and References) and to see where each DLL is pointing. See if any of the dates on the libraries are different than a working machine and you may find the culprit. Edit The OP found the problem by following the steps above. The fix for this particular issue is to unregister mscomctl.ocx: regsvr32 /u mscomctl.ocx Then register it: regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx share|improve this answer edited

The error produced says 'Automation Error Exception Occurred'. If I place a stop in the code and hold the F8 key down, the code runs perfectly (Excel 2013) but if I run it, it will crash. The code is copying a worksheet into a new workbook, adding 2 more worksheets, saving then emailing the workbook before closing. It goes through the routine about 7 times before crashing (sending only excel automation error 7 email out). It's something to do with the email because I can bypass that code and it runs that part without a problem. Our office just upgraded all the computers to Office 2013 and I've got to get this macro running again. I had to email 100 reports one-by-one today and I didn't like it. I can put code up if anyone thinks it might help. But like I said the code works if I step through it.

I have seen automation errors before and they can be rather insidious to diagnose. It can be very specific to your configuration. I have moved from 2010 to 2013 and have not experienced what you describe. You might want to check the libraries you have referenced. You may have to re-reference the Outlook library if you are using Outlook to send the email. The worst automation error I had was when I installed Project 2010, which did not automatically uninstall 2007. I had not even considered this for quite a while but when I uninstalled 2007 the problem went away. That is not related to your problem, just pointing out that automation errors are not well documented by Microsoft and difficult to diagnos

Email: KB00686 - Fixing "Automation Error" in Excel after applying MS12-060 Product: PI BatchView / PI DataLink / PI Tag Configurator Version(s): Multiple Platform: Windows Issue If you have already applied the Microsoft patch MS12-060, you may see the error "Automation Error: Unspecified Error" or "System Error &H8000FFF (-2147418113). Catastrophic failure" when starting Microsoft Excel. When closing Excel with PI DataLink enabled, you may also see the error "Compile error in hidden module: modAddin." Solution Typically, these errors can be resolved by searching for and deleting all *.exd files on the machine (including hidden files) as described in KB00804. In some cases, the fix for this problem is to re-register MSCOMCTL.OCX. To do this, follow the steps noted in the Microsoft article "Unspecified Automation Error" after applying MS12-060.
