    How to Prevent MISSING : Microsoft common Controls-2 6.0 (SP6) Error

    I have code that runs on a 64 bit computer with 32 bit version of office and everything runs great.

    The problem is I have distributed to people in the field and every now and then I get a Compile error in hidden module:

    I can get around this by going into references in the VBA and unchecking the file showing (MISSING : Microsoft common Controls-2 6.0 (SP6))
    After doing this it works


    Is there a way to fix this problem from happening???

    Uncheck it on your file, save it and then distribute it. If you don't need the reference (and it appears you don't) you should remove it.
