Macro works on windows but stopped working on Mac and messes up the result

Hello, hope you can help me please. I have a macro written on a windows computer but being used on a Mac. At first the macro's worked perfectly but then all of a sudden started doing sometime very strange. 

 

It copies the heading from column A onwards and enters it in column O onwards and then when I have my next vendor change it copies some of the data from the last vendor and adds it above the above line of incorrect data also starting from column O onwards. 

 

Your help would be much appreciated. 

Thank you


Zander

    1. Regarding paths... with a high probability it could be because of that.
    2. As far as I know, not all Win Excel functions are available on Mac Excel. So if a macro object or command refers to something that doesn't exist in Mac Excel, then of course it doesn't work.
    3. Differences in UserForm Controls Win Excel / Mac Excel
    4. Differences in the object model
    5. Differences in the AddIns
    6. VBA control of the menu bars
    7. Differences in reading and writing
    8. Differences in charts

    ...certainly one or the other difference, depending on the version, has been corrected, but you will still find a small hindrance with this change, depending on the version.

     

    Info: Why are Excel macros not always compatible between Mac / PC?

     

    Hope I was able to help you with this info.
