VBA error - MS Office 2010 & BBMS

I recentely installed MS Office 2010 on my Windows7 64bit system.

I now get the following error when launching BBMS (08.11.07.55)

"Cannot save changes to VBA project 'Support' because it is read-only. Do you want to save the project to a different file?"

I only get this with BBMS, Bentley Architecture, Structural and Electrical are fine.

I get this with both the USACE workspace as well as the OOTB default Workspace

It was working fine before the MS Office 2010 install

I have administrator rights to both my computer and all the network paths MS is accessing.

Any help?

  • I found the variable and commented it out - still get the same error.

    I truly believe it's something to do with MS Office 2010 because I have another system, same Window7 64bit, same Bentley versions and same workspace - only difference is MS Office 2003 - and I don't have any errors on that system.

    As I mentioned before this error only started occuring after upgrading to MS Office 2010

    Any other ideas?

  • In case anyone else runs into this problem I have found the solution:

    The problem is user specific, the install of Office 2010 changed the following file:

    C:\Users\[NAME]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Forms\MSComctlLib.exd

    I replaced this file in my user profile from another working user profile and fixed the problem.

    I have found this also solves a similar problem for BBMS users running Trane Trace.
