Compile error due to disabled items

Overview

Start-Up compile error

On some machines, some components of BudgetLink get disabled by Microsoft Excel. This is typically caused by some third-party addins interfering with the proper execution of BudgetLink. In general, this causes compile errors when BudgetLink starts.

To resolve these compile errors, you must re-enable the addins.

We recommend you first add a trusted location in Microsoft Excel before re-enabling any addins.
