    Compiled XLS Padlock EXE closes when Windows file dialog opens (Save As / Insert Image)

    Hello, Got the message again. Opened the IMFMain.exe compiled program, selected choose save file, and went to "Cancel" because I realized I wanted a recent file instead. Program ended immediately. Event viewer shows the following: Faulting application name: XLSPadlockLoad64.exe, version...

    Compiled XLS Padlock EXE closes when Windows file dialog opens (Save As / Insert Image)

    Hello from soon to be wet Hawaii! Just got the unexpected failure where the program exited without any obvious reason. It occurred when I moved the mouse quickly after the file dialog was displayed. Immediately went to the event viewer and got the following in the Application Log: Source...

    Compiled XLS Padlock EXE closes when Windows file dialog opens (Save As / Insert Image)

    I haven't forgotten. Watching for this problem. It's not easy to reproduce. I saw the criticism in a previous post. I take a somewhat different view. There are so many combinations of operating system features and third party extensions that anything any of us can do to help resolve this not...

    Compiled XLS Padlock EXE closes when Windows file dialog opens (Save As / Insert Image)

    I've gotten the same crash but it is intermittent, I don't use Nortons, and no client has reported it. Will attempt to reproduce, check event logs, and reply if I can find something substantive.

    Solution Issue with 2026.0

    Just installed 2026.0 and had to uninstall previous version. Used the contact system and they simply had to clear it on their side. Kudos for the quick response!

    Minimum Excel Version for XLS Padlock.

    Thanks. Apologies for the wrong forum. Minimum of 16 catches most inconsistencies real early. The build number is controlling, regardless of Excel release. For anybody's information, was able to get the minimum build level for various functions (attached). Obviously, sources not guaranteed

    Minimum Excel Version for XLS Padlock.

    I updated my Excel spreadsheet to use "Let" and IFS". I just found out that "Let" requires a minimum of Excel 2024. I don't have a problem with setting the minimum but this level doesn't appear to exist in the information section of the Security, Excel Versions tab for compiling the spreadsheet...

    Setting Cancel=True in Workbook.BeforeSave subroutine doesn't appear to work in compiled. Any workaround ideas?

    Okay, got some excellent support from André C. from GDGSupport! ' Manual: 2025.2 Section 10.2.3 has some information on this particular call except for a different reason: 'Programmatically Hide Wait/Loading Dialogs 1. In the Workbook_BeforeSave: Disable [Call...

    Setting Cancel=True in Workbook.BeforeSave subroutine doesn't appear to work in compiled. Any workaround ideas?

    I'm on 2025.2 with Windows/10 and have a complex Excel spreadsheet. However, when I try to save, I need the option to cancel it in the Workbook.BeforeSave subroutine. Setting Cancel=True end exiting the subroutine doesn't cancel the save. It works in the xlsm version but not in the compiled...

    Save during execution defaults to old directory

    Okay, tested it out on 2025.2. Did a A3=SetSecureWorkbookFilename(A1) where A1="H:\Xfer*.xlsc It appears to get the directory correct. The save screen looks like the following: It appears that I need to call the routine once with the directory name followed by a "\" and again with the file...

    Issue with Manual, "7.5 How to Close the Workbook After a Given Amount of Time"

    This is a cool procedure to ensure that expiration dates are not violated. If you want to make a one day expiration, don't use mScheduledTime = Now + TimeValue("24:00:00") . Consider changing it to: mScheduledTime = Now + 1 or mScheduledTime = Now + TimeValue("23:59:59") . We had this decades...

    Save during execution defaults to old directory

    This problem has seemed to come back somehow. On 2025.1. The save dialog box still uses the previous save directory. Tried using SetSecureWorkbookFilename with both "F:\VBA Projects\Checkin_1.3\XLSPadlock_2025_1003\*.xlsc" and "F:\VBA Projects\Checkin_1.3\XLSPadlock_2025_1003\test.xlsc" It...

    Loading Worksheet ends with no error (2025.1)

    Has anybody else had this recently on executing an Excel spreadsheet compiled with 2025.1? When certain xlsc files are opened on Windows/10, the program simply ends without an error. Attempting to do the same thing on the Windows/11 Laptop, the file opens okay. There must be some dll that is...

    Selected save file is not compatible

    That worked. Thanks for the quick response. It appears I can have versions with a different number of rows and open up the spreadsheet easily as long as I'm strict on making sure the secret key is the same. I also copied the GUID. Is that needed as well?

    Selected save file is not compatible

    Is there some sort of list why a save file would not be compatible with the application? I have a demo .xlsm that's pre-filled with names another that is blank. They have the same application key and are substantially identical. This comes from an underlying problem that you can't copy/delete...

    Add-in 2 System Error. Code: 59 An unexpected network error occurred.

    Thanks. It's seems to be something in the 2024.3 compiled version & execution on W/11. Execution error not generated on W/10. Compiling on 2024.3 on W/10 or 2025.0 on W/11 doesn't generate the error on either computer. It only occurred with 2024.3 and running on W/11. That could mean that any of...

    Add-in 2 System Error. Code: 59 An unexpected network error occurred.

    Now you have the scientist in me interested. Is there a specific module or modules that I can check the revision on that would provide further insight? I'm almost ready to update my Windows/10 to 2025.0 but it would be good to know what causes this.

    Add-in 2 System Error. Code: 59 An unexpected network error occurred.

    Hello, Quick note because I had a glitch and fixed it after an hour of work. I was using the following: Windows/11 (version 24H2 build 26100-4061) with the cumulative update of KB505679 and XLSPadlock 2024.3. Compiled the Excel spreadsheet. When I run the Excel .exe, I get the following...

    Share one worksheet among 5 users to manage check-in process

    Hello, I'm looking for ideas about the best way to have multiple users share a single spreadsheet (or maybe database) for check-in and voting purposes. We could have 100 people check in to 5 different and closely located computers. It would be much more efficient if they shared one spreadsheet...
