Excel 2013 can't open unexpected error 32809

I have an Excel macro application written in Windows 7 Office 2007. The application works on 3 PC's recently one PC was upgraded to Office 2013 and the application running on Windows 8 when opening the file in Excel I have unexpected error 32809.
Accessing the  VB Editor and debugging it tells me can't create cmbRecon (combobox). All the resources are there nothing missing I have spent days researching the internet and I'm frustrated as hell can't find a solution. Has anyone
had a similar problem?

Hi
I suppose the problem is that your file is corrupt. After that (very bad) Microsoft Update in December 2014 any XLSM File you safe with an updated Excel Version becomes corrupt. We are also experiencing serious troubles with our XLSM files. The problem is
neither your vba code nor the references or any like that.
Til now I found only the following solution: I have two Excel 2010 machines and one 2013 machine working. On the 2010 machines I uninstalled the KB2553154 and replaced the new (but corrupt, that's what I think) MSForms.exd (size 226KB) with the old (but
good) one (221KB). Files created in this environment are working fine.
With the 2013 machine I first tried the same: Uninstalling the respective KB2726958 and replacing the MSForms.exd. Unfortunately this did not bring the desired result. So I reverted my office to an earlier version,  (http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2770432/en-us)
which was the November release 15.0.4667.1002. Now I faced the problem that the activeX controls did't work anymore. So I deleted the old MSForms.exd. Now things are working... til now. Ah, yes, and I disabled automatic updates ... well
May be this information might  help u
Yours truly, litobito

  • Unexpected error 32809 excel 2013

    Hi,
    I am facing 'unexpected error 32809 ' error while opening to excel 2013.
    actually I got below steps to resolve the above error by deleting .exd file/ MSForm.exd.
    To fix it, do this:
    Close all Office applications.
    Do a search in Windows Explorer – make sure to include hidden and system files and folders – for *.exd files (note: that’s
    not *.exe !!) and delete any you find.
    Make sure you get these:
    C:\users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\Excel8.0\MSForms.exd
    C:\users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\VBE\MSForms.exd
    Reboot the computer (this is not always necessary, but probably better safe than sorry)
    Restart your Office apps and test the controls again
    But that fix is working for some machines only. when I tried in another machine still we facing same issue after deleting .exd files also
    Could you please help to resolve the issue.
    Thank in advance!

    Upgrade to APEX 4.2.3 apexins_con.sql gets Unexpected error encountered in catconInit; exiting
    I am attempting to install/upgrade apex 4.2.3 under Oracle12c in a Multi-Tenant configuration.
    Here are the environmental details
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Apex 4.2.3
    ORCL: CDB$ROOT
    PDBORCL: PDB$SEED
    Here is the current states of the pluggable databases
    SQL> SELECT NAME,OPEN_MODE,TOTAL_SIZE/1024/1024/1024 FROM V$PDBS;

    PDBORCL                        READ WRITE                .366210938
    SQL>
    This is the command that I am using to re-install/upgrade APEX:
    # remove 4.2.2 installation
    cd M:\apex_4.2.3\apex_4.2.3_en\apex
    sqlplus /@ORCL as sysdba
    @apxremov.sql   <<  this was successful
    quit
    Install 4.2.3 installation
    sqlplus /@ORCL as sysdba
    @apexins_con.sql i10wrk SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/  << this failed
    The APEX  installation fails immediately with the following message:
    catconInit: database is not open
    Unexpected error encountered in catconInit; exiting
    I cannot determine which database is not open.  Both my CDB$ROOT and PDBORCL are reported as open (READ WRITE Mode).
    Here is my Container database
    SQL>  SELECT SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'CON_NAME') FROM DUAL;
    SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','CON_NAME')

    Here is the associated Pluggable Database

    SQL> ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE PDBORCL OPEN;
    ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE PDBORCL OPEN
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-65019: pluggable database PDBORCL already open
    I am confused…. Which database is not open?
    The PDB$SEED is open in (READ ONLY) mode, but that is simply the template database.  I don't think that ever needs to be open in (Read Write) mode.

    sbing52,
    I cannot vouch for the specific error that is being returned by catcon.pl, but I would try the following in your situation.
    1. It seems you connect to CDB$ROOT and ran apxremov.sql. This only removed the common APEX option from CDB$ROOT. Your PDB is now in an inconsistent state, since APEX is no longer in the root. I would reconnect to CDB$ROOT and run apxremov_con.sql, make sure you use the one from the 4.2.3 distribution. The one in the ORACLE home will not work.
    2. I would then re-run apexins_con.sql connect to CDB$ROOT. Also, you need to pass the proper parameters. Why are you passing i10wrk? You should be invoking it like:
    @apexins_con.sql SYSAUX SYSAUX TEMP /i/

  • When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    When I export my number file in Excel, I can not open the spreadsheet : Invalid Reference, what's wrong ?

    "Invalid reference" usually means there is a cell reference in a formula to a cell that does not exist in the document.
    In this case, it could mean that your Numbers document uses a feature that is not supported by MS Excel, and because of that, the document cannot be translated into an Excel file.
    A more specific answer would require a more detailed description of your Numbers document.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have tried to reboot, but to no avail.

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".
    Does iTunes launch properly now?
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

  • Office 2013 can't open word, excel files from the network after upgrade to 8.1

    Hello,
    Recently, I upgraded all PCs from WIN 8 to Win 8.1. After the upgrade I noticed that I can't open any word documents and excel files. Before the upgraded I have no problem opened any files. All PCs have over 500GB free space on hard drive. Other PCs that
    run Win 7 have no problem open them only the one with Win 8.1. This is what I got:
    I right click--> property and there is no unblocked. All files resided on the network server.
    Please help.

    Hi Jimmy,
    Did you get any error message when you try to open an Excel file/Word document?
    If so, you can post the error message and  event log here.Also ,if you had antivirus software installed, try to disable them to test this issue.
    In addition, what happens if you add the network server location as a trusted location?

    The exact error message and the first 50 lines of the error log,
    The Aperture version, the version of your OS, the technical data of your machine,

  • Word Web App (2013) can't open this document ... Because the service is busy

    I have just set up Office Web Apps Server in a SharePoint 2013 test environment as per document here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx
    Although I had some issues with Excel Web App at first, I've solved this and excel seems to work ok, However, the Word Web App just sits there spinning and ultimately give the error dialog:
    "Sorry, Word Web App can't open this document because the service is busy. Please try again later"   The Same link as above has a simple solution :
     Did you install Office Web Apps Server on a domain controller? Office Web Apps Server cannot run on a domain controller. Office Web Apps Server must be installed on a separate server that is part of a domain. For more information, see
    Software, hardware, and configuration requirements for Office Web Apps Server.
    I certainly did not install on a DC - its a standalone server.
    ULS Logs are growing by 2K per second even when I am not doing anything on the server.
    VERY FRUSTRATED!

    So after further research we have found the following:
    Un-bind and unindstall Web Application Server
    Clean Server
    Reinstall (by Mistake to the C: Drive)
    Bind and Provision
    WOW it works!
    Un-bind, deprovision, Uninstall, Web Application Server
    clean Server
    Re-install to the D: Drive
    Provision and Bind
    wow - it DOES NOT work
    Again - repeat the first scenario
    and once again IT WORKS
    SO Why doesn't it work on the D Drive - We've checked IIS Setting and Permission - there don't seem to be any differences.
    SO - Why isn't this working when changing the default installation location, is it just me?   Has anyone gotten this working installing to another drive?
    Thanks

  • Excel 2013 will not open file using double click

    I have a problem with Excel 2013  running on Windows 7 Pro (64). When double clicking an Excel file from Windows Explorer  Excel launches but opens a blank worksheet and shows me an error message (german: sinngemäß: "die Weitergabe eines anderen
    Programms ist gescheitert"). The only way to view the document is by opening Excel and browsing to the saved file.
    I have read similar forum entries which address this problem in older versions of Excel. I have tried every solution but none of them worked.
    I already added the registry setting for shell open and set the Ignore Other Applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) (unchcked).
    The problem still persists. When I first installed Office 2013 it all worked fine. I believe the problem occured after installing Project 2013, but I am not quite sure about that. Reinstalling Excel did not help.
    I´d appreciate any help,
    Regards Stefan Hassel

    Hi,
    Check the following steps:
    1. Make sure that Excel is not running (exit the program).
    2. Click the Start button to displays the Start menu.
    3. From the Start menu, choose Run. Windows displays the Run dialog box.
    4. In the Open box, enter the full path name to your Excel program, followed by the /regserver switch. If the full path name includes spaces, surround the full path name by quote marks. The following is an example of what you can enter in the Open box
    (your path may be different):
         "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" /regserver
    •  Click OK.

  • My Catalog - "Can't open Database" error

    After being able to open Photoshop Album Starter Edition successfully and without incident several months ago, one day I received this error:
    "Problem opening the Catalog named "My Catalog". Another user or application may have the catalog open, or one or more files may be missing, out of date, or damaged. [Microsoft] [ODBC Microsoft Access 97 Driver] can't open database 'unknown'. It may not be a database that your application recognizes or the file may be corrupt. Attempt to compact and recover this catalog then try again? - OK or Cancel"
    If I choose OK, then I get another error:
    "Catalog Recovery Incomplete - A problem was encountered during catalog recovery. Your catalog may be ok, but if you experience problems with it that can't be resolved through the Reover Catalog option or restarting your computer system you may need to restore this catalog from a backup. - OK"
    That goes to a 3rd error message:
    "Unable to open "My Catalog because it is damaged. Please choose: Open existing or Create a new catalog named My Catalog-1.psa"
    If I choose existing, it goes to the folder where My Catalog is stored, I can click it, and then I receive the first message. If I choose create a new catalog, it does, then gives me the first error message. PSA SE never opens, but the photo downloader appears in my Task bar Notification area, and I can Launch, Enable/Disable or Exit that program. If I try to acquire a photo, I end up with the same first error message.
    I've seen the other threads that address what may be close to this issue, and I've done all the fixes suggested, short of reinstalling WindowsXP, which I'd rather avoid, but I've had no luck - I still get the exact same error messages.
    I am using Office 97, including Access, Word, Excel, etc. but I'm not having any issues with those. I'm also using Pagemaker 7.0 and no issues there related to a catalog or database. I did have at one time a trial copy of Illustrator, and this problem started occurring after that trial was expired. I've since uninstalled Illustrator, done all the fixes suggested here, deleted the My Catalog files, restarted, uninstalled and re-installed PSA SE3.2, and still it cannot 'see' My Catalog.
    Any other suggestions (besides upgrading to Office-this decade, which I would love, but employer hasn't made that leap yet.)? TIA
    Tracey

    No, no multiple users on this machine, or on that application. Both are located on the C: drive of a computer with intranet and internet access.
    Could it have anything to do with the application Microsoft Access? [Microsoft ODBC Access97 driver] is named in the first error message. Access97 was always on this computer, but it wasn't actually put into use until about 6-8 months ago, and it was sometime after I started using it that I could no longer open PSA-SE. Connection? Fixable?

  • In Excel 2013, can you create a powerview connected to a SQL server and then upload this to Sharepoint to 2013?

    Creating a powerview in sharepoint browser can be tedious, but it is a lot more convenient in the desktop Excel 2013. 
    However, when you upload the excel document (where data source is SQL server) to sharepoint, there are two problems:
    1. The powerview is shown as a worksheet in the excel file in sharepoint
    2. You dont get the same features as a powerview - most importantly Export to PowerPoint.
    Has anyone come across this?  Does this mean if you want to create powerview which are to be shown in full screen and also to be exported to powerpoint must always be directly created in Sharepoint browser?

    Hi,
    There is no method to get around this. According
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/power-view-explore-visualize-and-present-your-data-HA102835634.aspx,
    Both versions of Power View need Silverlight installed on the machine.
    You can’t open a Power View RDLX file in Excel, or open an Excel XLSX file with Power View sheets in Power View in SharePoint. You also can’t copy charts or other visualizations from the RDLX file into the Excel workbook.
    You can save Excel XLSX files with Power View sheets to SharePoint Server, either on premises or in Office 365, and open those files in SharePoint. Read more about
    Power View in Excel in SharePoint Server 2013 or in SharePoint Online in Office 365.
    In addition, you can try to submit the suggestions from the following link:

  • Excel 2013 hangs on opening a file on network

    Hello,
    I have a user that is having problems opening some Excel files(.xlsx) from a specific folder on the network. I can open them fine with Excel 2013 and others can as well, even at the user's location which is off-site from the main building. These files are
    about 2.5 to 3.5Mb in size. I could open a 62Kb file on the persons computer but the larger files Excel just sits there with the spinning cursor and the program window 'blinks', kind of like when you make it the active window then click somewhere else then
    back. I can go up one level then into a different folder and have no issues opening Excel files there. I've tried opening through Safe Mode but it has the same behavior, performed a repair on Office as well as an Open and Repair on the file, made sure it was
    a trusted location  and disabled hardware acceleration. Nothing is working. What else can I try to troubleshoot this issue?
    On a side note and I'm not sure if this is helpful but when they tried opening the file, I never saw the temp file created like I do when you open any Office document.

    I tried both and at first the xlsb file was hanging but I logged off to try other things under my account then logged back on again and it opened though pretty slow. I tried from my account as well and it is very slow but does eventually open. Under the
    users account I copied the file to her desktop and it opens with no problem. The permissions are the same on all similar level folders yet the user can open Excel files from them with no problem and even larger than the problem files.
    Edit: My mistake, the green progress bar happens on other folders as well. Talking with one of the senior IT who installed the system, this user is the last person of a chain from microwave>switch and fiber link>another switch and fiber link so just
    may be a physical issue though from my experience the one folder 'seems' to have the most trouble in opening the Excel files.
    Also tried disconnecting the network drive then reclogging to let the scripts recreate it. No luck with that approach either.
