Excel 2007 Macros do not run even after applying known "fixit" steps

Good day everyone,
By now, a lot of you here are already aware of the issue that began following the December 9th security update.  I experienced this issue at our offices and used the known fixes for it, which solved the problem for most of my users.
To clarify, this is the specific issue I'm referring to:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_excel_support_team_blog/archive/2014/12/11/forms-controls-stop-working-after-december-2014-updates-.aspx
However, I now have at least 5 users who are unable to use any macros.  When pressing the buttons, there is no reaction at all.  Windows Updates have been run, the relevant KB has been installed and I've run the fixit provided.  I even manually
checked all of the relevant folders in order to make sure the .exd files have been wiped. 
Yet when I try to run the macros, it still doesn't work.  Their Excel settings allow for macro execution.  In case, I tried setting it on the insecure option that allows everything and tried again, but without success.   I've also asked
the person who coded the macros to recompile one of his spreadsheets after making a minor modification, as is mentioned in the support structure, but tests with that updated spreadsheet also failed.
The issue seems machine-based as I am unable to run the macros myself if I use my login on that machine, however they work fine if I try doing so from my own computer.  This leads me to believe it could be a conflict caused by some other software installation
and I'll look into this after I posted this message, but I'd be interested to hear any feedback you guys may have.
Our users run Windows 7 Professional x64 and we have Office 2007 Professional Plus.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
We have definitely heard your frustration now, Microsoft understands the position our customers are in and we are actively working to find a solution besides a FixIt that can be deployed to remedy the issue. If we have any update, we'll post in this
forum immediately.
Thanks for your understanding.

  • EXCEL.EXE process is keep running even after closing all the handles

    I am using Excel Report Instrument functions  for creating excel application and sheet,workbook after reading/writing in to excel file am closing all the handles using CA_DiscardObjHandle (handle);     even after file is getting closed m checking it in TaskManager then one EXCEl.EXE process is keep running there,pls let me know how to deal with this....
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A Kumar:
    Have you tried running the example program excelreportdemo.prj that ships with CVI?  It ends the excel process by discarding multiple handles, and it works even if you're editing a cell or have an Excel dialog open, etc.  Try running this without modification and verify that the excel process is closed when you quit the CVI app.
    Here's the Quit function from excelreportdemo.  It checks for and closes handles for the worksheet, chart, workbook, and excel application.
    int CVICALLBACK Quit (int panel, int control, int event,
            void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
        switch (event)
            case EVENT_COMMIT:
                if (worksheetHandle)
                    CA_DiscardObjHandle(worksheetHandle);
                if (chartHandle)
                    CA_DiscardObjHandle(chartHandle);
                if (workbookHandle)
                    ExcelRpt_WorkbookClose(workbookHandle, 0);
                    CA_DiscardObjHandle(workbookHandle);
                if (applicationHandle)
                    ExcelRpt_ApplicationQuit(applicationHandle);
                    CA_DiscardObjHandle(applicationHandle);
                QuitUserInterface (0);

  • Autocad 2010 drawing pasted in microsoft excel 2007 spread sheet not visible after converting excel

    Hello, I am having an issue with Autocad 2010 drawings not showing up in a pdf document. Normally, I cut and paste part of an Autocad 2010 drawing into a Microsoft Excel 2007 spread sheet. Then, using Adobe Distiller, I convert the Excel spread sheet into a pdf document for propriatary purposes. However, recently the drawing pasted into Excel will not fully appear on the pdf, the drawing is cut off past a certain point. The drawing will print normally in Excel, but in pdf will not print normally. If the drawing is shrunk below the "cut off" point, it appears normally. If the drawing is expanded above the "cut off" point, any additional image is lost. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem would be appreciated.

  • Webi report would NOT refresh even after setting prompts and refreshing document instance.

    I am a .NET developer and a newbie to the world of BO I have just written a simple application in C# making use of the BO.NET Enterprise SDK and the ReportEngine.NET SDK to open a WEBI document and export it to Excel.  I have got the whole thing working - starting from establishing the EnterpriseSession, obtaining the reportEngine instance and also opneing the Webi document and exporting it to Excel. 
    The problem is the even after setting a different value for the prompts I ALWAYS get the same report  - for example if I set the Country prompt to India I always get the previous one that was set in the universe (Brazil).  These are not optional prompts and I do refresh the documentInstance after calling "SetPrompts"  Did anyone elase have the same problem with caching?.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Please find the snipped of the code attached.

    The link is correct, however you need access to SAP Service Market Place (SMP), which you should have since you are using BOE / BI. If not, ask your BOE / BI administrator to set you up with logon to SMP.

  • Process Chain running even after end date

    Hi,
    We are scheduling month end PC to run every 2 hours and also we have given end date for today evening.but process chain runs even after end date for every 2 hours.so we have to manually remove it from scheduling.
    Any method how can PC stop on its own after end date .
    Any help highly APPRECIATED
    Thanks
    Nilesh Pathak

    There might be multiple release jobs for thie process chain.
    So check the same. Right click on process chain --> Display scheduled jobs --> Here all the jobs logs of the chain will be available.. So check the same here...
    As you have descheduled it now.. probably you may not be having it as the first release job might be moved to Schedule status as soon as the END date has reached and then second one might have gone when you have removed the chain from Schduling..
    Anyway check the same.. and also check in SM37 whether any other user has triggered it manually today or not?

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options.

    Why can I not disable the guest user in the 10.8.2 update? I have never enabled the guest user, but after the update, it was automatically enabled with a "managed" tag. It is not selectable even after entering my admin password to unlock the options. I was able to select the account under "parental controls", but again, could not delete it. Why Apple? Why?!!????

    SOLVED Ok. I actually was able to disable it. I had to actually log in as the guest user to make it accessible in the preference window. Then I disabled it and logged out. Apologies if this was obvious for some people, but I have had some sort of issue with something every update since Snow Leopard.

  • My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. What should I do?

    My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. I believe there may be a problem with the battery or the backlight. I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

    You might try a "hard reset" where you remove battery and AC charger, hold down power button 20-30 seconds and then reassemble and turn on. Reset BIOS (F10) to default settings, too.
