Why is Excel macros sometimes missing ?
It might be due to different versions of Word app. Try to open with the latest version.

Noone seems to have any ideas what to do to get further into curing this problem.
If I compile and save the file on a Windows 11 machine and try running a copy of THAT saved file (from Windows 11) on a Windows 10 machine the problem comes up there too !
(I just use a backup file to ensure my users can run on the Windows 10 machine again)
I run on fully updated Windows 10 and 11 and Office is too fully updated.
What the _BEEP_ is wrong here ?

THX for your replay !
I checked for updates on WORD and in fact there WAS an update ... and I started the updating !
I think it updates the whole MSOffice bacause I would update Excel but got a message that it already was updated.
Unfortunately is didn't cure the problem !
This morning I just COPIED the Excel-file from my Windows 10 machine (where it works nicely !) to the indows 11 machine ... oops ... a lot of macros then is missing in the menu but the ARE present in the VBA editor ... and they work there too !!
What the BEEP is wrong here ... and WHY does MS-staff not correct this fatal error ... missing macros hasd been a problem for YEARS !

I'm pretty sure I have my updating set to updating ALL of my MS products ... but I'll look to be sure !
