I have created a .dot file for my employers that contains functions that add a toolbar and button to Word. When the button is clicked, it displays a dialog box so users can insert text into the active document. It has been distributed throughout the company and has worked fine on all the systems on which it has been installed... except one. On that one system, the following error appears whenever the button is clicked to bring up the dialog box:

Compile error in hidden module: GlossaryMethods

The error only comes up on this one system and I can't imagine why or what might be different about the way Word is installed on this one machine that might cause a problem. When I ask for help on the error message, it says something about a protected module but I'm pretty sure that I didn't protect the module. Any idea what I might look for in order to resolve this issue?

The GlossaryMethods module might be using some library functions(DLLs) that might not be available in the machine causing the error. You need to install those libraries and register them.

My first reaction to your reply was that I would certainly be sure to distribute any DLLs I had created along with the template. Then I remembered something and, sure enough, you hit the nail right on the head. I explicitly create an MSXML 6.0 object and the problem system doesn't have MSXML 6.0 installed.

Thanks!
