Excel Issue - MISSING: Ref Edit Control

Asked by Brew_City in Microsoft Office Suite, Windows XP Operating System, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

This is a long issue I will try to make short and I would appreciate some suggestion on a "Best Practice" for this.

Background:
At my office we are upgrading groups of users from Office 2003 sp2 to Office 2007.  My End-Users are all Actuary's and are all very advanced Excel, VBA users.

Issue:
If a Module/workbook is opened /saved in 2007 (as a .xls) that contains a user form it will add a reference to the "RefEdit Control", but functionally everything is still fine.  If this same file is then opened in 2003 sp2 you will receive a "Cannot find project or library error".

So far anytime we've had to send a deliverable to a client I just have the End-User uncheck the RefEdit Control reference..  Does anyone have any ideas of a better way?  We don't use RefEdit on any of our user forms.
