I have some AutoIt scripts that run fine under Windows XP but do not run under Windows 8. The problem appears to be the _ExcelBookOpen statement fails. I've used the following example script from the Help file for a test.
Running this produces the Error message box Unable to Create the Excel Object.
I'm using Microsoft Excel 2002.
I need some help to correct or work around this problem.
Thank you - Dick
