Excel7 or 95 in XP VBA initialization failure

I`m asking my question here because the question button won`t open a window
to type in . How do I get my ancient Excel to work on XP? When I open it
the program says it "failed to initilize VBA libraries" How do I get these
libraries and put them on my machine so that Excel will have them when needed?
Thannnnnnnnnk You, Plain

I believe you need Excel 97 or higher for WinXP, Excel 95 is of the on Win95
days, and most Win95 software is "NOT" compatible with WinXP.

I think this one may be compatible as it works fine as far as I can tell but
I would like to the the VBA libraries in if that will give me more
flexibility with the program and I would also like to start learning about
VBA.
Thanks, Plain
