I have both versions of Microstation V8i (SS10) and Select, the vba applications no longer work on v8i.But if I launch the application from the Select version, it works.I'd like to be able to run the applications on both versions of Microstation.

What is the exact version no. (e.g. v10.x.y.z) of MicroStation that you are using on each computer? Use key-in VERSION to see the version no. in the MicroStation Message Center, or Help→About MicroStation in the backstage.
VERSION
See this blog that shows you how to obtain MicroStation's version number.
If you're using an additional product (e.g. ProjectWise, OpenXxx) let us know about that too!

MicroStation v7 is a very old version of MicroStation (see the History of MicroStation). It doesn't support VBA.
Microstaion V8i (select SERIE 10° VERSION 08.11.09.919
VBA applications work very well with v8i when Microstation CONNECT version is not installed on the same PC. But when both versions are installed on the same PC, VBA applications work only on the CONNECT version.
I not using an additional product

Aha! So you have MicroStation V8i (a 32-bit product) and MicroStation CONNECT (a 64-bit product) installed. They each install an appropriate version of Microsoft VBA. From experience, I know that MicroStation VBA macros work on both versions.
When you write 'VBA applications work only on the CONNECT version' what happens on MicroStation V8i? If you use the VBA project browser (under MicroStation Utilities) can you see your macros?
MicroStation searches for VBA macros in the folder(s) indicated by configuration variable MS_VBASEARCHDIRECTORIES. What is the definition of that variable in MicroStation V8i? Does that folder exist? Does that folder contain your *.mvba files?
MS_VBASEARCHDIRECTORIES
*.mvba
If I use the VBA project browser, I can see your macros.The macro runs fine, but a message appears.

Ihis is ok.
the vba application launches but does not run, I think on the Connect version.
