VBA not loading on Bricscad 2018 pro

Dear all,

I have some lisp tools (des- and fas-files) working on Bricscad 2015.
When I tried to install Bricscad 2018 pro and load everything, there are some errors popping up.
The most important one is: Failed to initialize VBA (Visual Basic for applications).

I tried installing the x64 version of Bricscad. Error popping up.
I also tried installing the x32 version of Bricscad. Also and error.

Hopefully there is a solution :)

Thanks!

    I think you can't run arx in BricsCAD, only brx works on BricsCAD.
    If your brx file works on BricsCAD 2015 it will not work on other versions of BricsCAD. brx file must be recompiled from source for BricsCAD 2018.

    And maybe your des files depends on brx files? So it will not work.
    It is my guess only.

    For VBA :
    you need to explicitly install the VBA runtime, it is in the BricsCAd installation folder, under ./VBA ... a single installer, installing both x86 + x64 runtimes for VBA.

    FAS files can not be loaded, it is a specifically encrypted Lisp file (only DES encrypted files can be loaded).

    hope this helps ?
