Symptoms
Consider the following scenario. You create a file in a 2007 Microsoft Office application or in an earlier version of the application. You notice that some settings for the Microsoft Visual Basic Editor are enabled in the application, such as the Require Variable Declaration option and the Compile on Demand option. When you open the file in a Microsoft Office 2010 application, these settings are disabled.
Cause
This problem occurs because Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) is upgraded to version 7.0 in Microsoft Office 2010. Therefore, the registry entries that correspond to the settings for the Visual Basic editor are located under a different subkey. In Office 2010, the registry entries are located under the following subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftVBA7.0Common
In earlier versions of Office, the registry entries are located at the following subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftVBA6.0Common
Workaround
To work around this problem, enable the settings manually. To do this, use one of the following methods:
Method 1
Start an Office 2010 application.
On the Developer tab, click Visual Basic.
If you start Microsoft Access 2010, click Visual Basic on the Database Tools tab.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
In the Options dialog box, select any option that you want to enable, and then click OK.
Method 2
Important
This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, see How to back up and restore the registry in Windows.
Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate the following registry subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftVBA6.0Common
On the File menu, click Export.
In the Export Registry File dialog box, select a path and a name for the exported file.
Make sure that the Selected branch option is enabled, and then click Save.
Open the exported file in Notepad.

Then, change this string to the following:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftVBA7.0Common]
Save and then close the file in Notepad.
In Registry Editor, click Import on the File menu.
In the Export Registry File dialog box, select the file that you just saved, and then click Open.
