I have reloaded MS office. I think Dell removed it from the XP load because it works fine on all of our 100's of other machines. The MS tech support websight gives no clue on how to load VB in XP. Dell support does not answer their phone.

If VBA is installed, it could be disabled if one of the following DWORD registry keys exists and has a value greater than 0:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\VBAOff
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\VBAOff

That should be:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\VBAOff
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Common\VBAOff
