Excel Macro crashes with Excel SP3 & Windows Xp SP2

[vivekvr]

Hello,

I have an Excel template with a couple of macros that perform mathematical operations on the cells. This template was created in Excel 97 and has since been edited in different versions of Excel.

I have a Latitude D630 with Office 2003 SP3 & Windows XP SP2. Excel crashes consistently when I close the template after running any of the macros. The modules that cause the crash are ntdll.dll & vbe6.dll. The entries corresponding to these errors in the error logs are at the end. Trying to step through the code using Workbook_Deactivate () and Workbook_BeforeClose() din't get me any closer to a fix.

However, the template works fine on D630's with Office 2003 SP2 - Windows XP SP2 & Office 2007 - Windows XP SP.

Are there any known compatibility issues between Excel 2003 SP3 & Windows XP SP2. When I searched online, there were quite a few cases of crashes due to ntdll.dll & vbe6.dll occuring either due to corrupted dlls or due to incomptaible applications as Adobe, Norton Anti Virus but not mention about incompatibility of Office 2003 SP3 with Windows XP SP2.

I would appreciate it if someone can tell me whether this is a known issue or some solution for this.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers,
