Can someone please help me with this error. I recently moved this file from a 32 bit system using Office 2003 to a laptop using Windows 7 (64 bit) and Office Professional 2010 (64 bit). The picture creation and pasting works perfectly fine on my old laptop, but now I get an error saying:
Run-time error '53':
File not found: olepro32.dll
Everything else seems to be fine except this. I have posted the VBA code below where the error is occurring. About two-thirds of the way down, I highlighted the line of code in red where the error occurs.
I am in desperate need of help on this.
Thanks in advance.
