Hello, since my pc was upgraded, this code will not run. It goes directly to the "File selection was canceled." It worked fine before the upgrade but I had to put PtrSafe declarations in the following to get it it even open. Any help would be greatly appreciated on ideas to fix???


 
Code:
Option Explicit

Private Declare PtrSafe Function ts_apiGetOpenFileName Lib "comdlg32.dll" _
Alias "GetOpenFileNameA" (tsFN As tsFileName) As Boolean

Private Declare PtrSafe Function ts_apiGetSaveFileName Lib "comdlg32.dll" _
Alias "GetSaveFileNameA" (tsFN As tsFileName) As Boolean

Private Declare PtrSafe Function CommDlgExtendedError Lib "comdlg32.dll" () As Long


Public Sub ImportSeveranceData()
Dim strCurrProjPath As String
Dim objExcel As Object 'Excel.Application
Dim objWorkbook As Object 'Excel.Workbook
Dim objWorksheet As Object 'Worksheet
Dim strXlFileName As String 'Excel Workbook name
Dim strWorksheetName As String 'Excel Worksheet name
Dim objCell As Object 'Last used cell in column
Dim strUsedRange As String 'Used range
Dim FileName As String
Dim objDialog, boolResult

Dim strFilter As String
Dim lngFlags As Long
Dim varFileName As Variant


On Error GoTo Err_ImportSeveranceData
   
    strFilter = "All Files (*.*)" & vbNullChar & "*.*"

    lngFlags = tscFNPathMustExist Or tscFNFileMustExist Or tscFNHideReadOnly

    varFileName = tsGetFileFromUser( _
    fOpenFile:=True, _
    strFilter:=strFilter, _
    rlngflags:=lngFlags, _
    strInitialDir:="C:\Windows\", _
    strDialogTitle:="Find File (Select The File And Click The Open Button)")
    'remove the strInitialDir:="C:\Windows\", _ line if you do not want the Browser to open at a specific location

    If IsNull(varFileName) Or varFileName = "" Then
        Debug.Print "User pressed 'Cancel'."
        Beep
        MsgBox "File selection was canceled.", vbInformation
        Exit Sub
    Else
        tbFile = varFileName
    End If

     
    'Assign Path and filename of XL file to variable
    strXlFileName = varFileName

    'Assign Excel application to a variable
    Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    objExcel.Visible = False 'Can be visible or not visible
    objExcel.UserControl = True
    
    'Open the Excel Workbook
    Set objWorkbook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(strXlFileName)
    ', Password:="gap$term"
     
    'Assign required worksheet to a variable
    With objWorkbook
        Set objWorksheet = .Worksheets(1)
    End With

    With objWorksheet
    'Assign worksheet name to a string variable
    strWorksheetName = .Name
   
    End With

  
    'Turn off/Close in reverse order to setting/opening.
    Set objCell = Nothing
    Set objWorksheet = Nothing
    
    'SaveChanges = False suppresses save message
    objWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
    Set objWorkbook = Nothing
    objExcel.Quit
    Set objExcel = Nothing
    
    'Import the worksheet
    DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acImport, 8, "tblSeveranceData", _
    strXlFileName, True, "DynamicRange"


    MsgBox "Severance data imported successfully!"


Exit_ImportSeveranceData:
    Exit Sub

Err_ImportSeveranceData:
    MsgBox Err.Description
    Resume Exit_ImportSeveranceData

End Sub
 
This module fixed it.
