Hi,
I have a brand new machine here that won't load any vba projects.Vba projects that are defined to autoload don't and manually loading the mvba project results in this error:
VBA interface error: failed creating the comp manager - 0x80040583
I tried suggestions offered by PierreC in another thread to correct the problem using config variables :
MS_VBALCID = 3084 or MS_VBALCID = 1033I tried setting these right back in mslocal.cfg (before... %include $(MSDIR)config/msconfig.cfg) but they did not help.
The only thing that I am aware of being different on this machine is that it has Office 2013 installed.
Question: There any known compatibility issues with MS Office 2013?
Question: If I can get macros to work will I be able to use our vba code that connects with Excel considering the new office 2013 is 64bit?
I tried Microstation 08.11.09.397 & 08.11.09.424OS is Windows 7 64bitAny help much appreciated.
Regards,
Mike
Edit/ just tried the latest 08.11.09.459 same issue.
I would look to this communities.bentley.com/.../219039.aspx as it is most likely some system change that is causing the problem.

Hi Mark,
Unknown said: communities.bentley.com/.../219039.aspx
This post seems to refer to specific vba projects that do not load. In my case I can't load any vba projects at all. Neither can I create a new one.So I'm not sure in the value of chasing up the suggestions in that thread.
It looks like my case is not an isolated one . So a clear solution from Bentley I think is in order.
This is a brand new machine with fresh install of Windows 7 64bit with all updates and Office 2013.
Thanks

Hi Everyone,
I installed the prequisite pack of a previous version 'pbda08110706en'
And now everything is working correctly.
I don't know if there can be any adverse consequences of installing this post microstation install but everything appears to be working correctly.
Also. Connecting to Excel 2013 through vba is also working fine.
Yay

Ok I'm still having a problem. I had Microsoft Office 2010 on both machines and Microstation V8i. I changed from XP to Windows 7. My IT dept has most everything locked down so I can't install a previous version. Any other suggestions???! Thanks!
Hi jwl,
I would say your IT Dept should be there to help you resolve the issues. My suggestion is have them get 'Prerequisites for Bentley Desktop Applications' from Bentley Select downloads. Logon to your machine and install it.
Im pretty sure this will fix your problem.
If your machine is locked down I can't see how you can fix your machine without the help of your IT Dept.
Good luck.
Mike H,
I am having the same issue as well. Where would I be able to find this prequisite pack of a previous version 'pbda08110706en' that you are talking about? I have searched the MicroStation support page but I must have over looked it.
Thanks for the help,
Vinny
Hi Vinny,
You can download them from Select Services...
Typically it is listed in the popular download section. Otherwise a search should find it.
