MORE INFORMATIONVisual Basic and Microsoft Excel Object Library Files
If your Visual Basic code in Microsoft Excel is written in a language other
than English, you should always include the appropriate language object
library files (.olb) when you distribute your Visual Basic application, in
case the recipient doesn't already have the library files. If your code
calls procedures written in multiple languages, then you should include the
object libraries for each of those languages. You should also include all
workbooks and other object libraries that are referenced by the application
that you are distributing.
Microsoft allows all registered owners of Microsoft Excel to distribute
object libraries with their applications to other registered owners as
necessary. The names of the object library files available from Microsoft
are listed in the following table.

Determining the Location of an Object Library
To determine the location of an object library on your computer's hard
disk, do the following:
- In Microsoft Excel, switch to a Visual Basic module sheet in a
workbook.
- On the Tools menu, click References.
- From the Available References list, select the library name.
The library file location is listed next to Path under Description.
This procedure is also useful for determining which object library files
you should distribute with your application. The check box next to a
referenced object library file is selected.
Registering a Different Language Version
To register a different language version of an object library file and
to reference this language version in a new Visual Basic project, do the
following:
- Copy the object library files (VBA*.olb) to the System subfolder of
your Windows folder, for example in c:\Windows\System.
- Copy the Microsoft Excel 7.0 object library files (Xl*.olb) to the
folder to which you installed Microsoft Excel.
- Start Microsoft Excel version 7.0.
- Create a new module. In the module, click References on the Tools
menu. Click the Browse button.
- Locate and select the Microsoft Excel object library file, for example
Xl5fr32.olb, and click OK. Click OK in the dialog box that appears with
the error message "Object library language setting incompatible with
current project."
- Repeat step 5 with the Visual Basic for applications object
library file, for example Vbafr.olb. In the References dialog box,
click OK.
- Click Options on the Tools menu. Select the Module General tab, and
under International, select Default Settings. From the Language/Country
list, select the language and country of the object library file you
want to use. Click OK.
- Create a Visual Basic module in a new project.
Note that in Microsoft Excel, you must create a new workbook and then
create the new module to use the new default Language/Country option.
