the following error appears each time i launch (without opening a file) MS Excel 2010 x64bit.

"Compile error in hidden module: cUtility"

"The error commonly occurs when code is incompatible wih the wersion, platform, or acrhitecture of this application...

help reveals ...

A protected module contains a compilation error. Because the error is in a protected module it

cannot be displayed.  This error commonly occurs when code is incompatible with the version or

architecture of this application (for example, code in a document targets 32-bit Microsoft Office applications but it is attempting to run on 64-bit Office).

This error has the following cause and solution:

Cause of the error:

The error is raised when a compilation error exists in the VBA code inside a

protected (hidden) module. The specific compilation error is not exposed because

the module is protected.

Possible solutions:

If you have access to the VBA code in the document or project, unprotect the

module, and then run the code again to view the specific error.

If you do not have access to the VBA code in the document, then contact the

document author to have the code in the hidden module updated.

The problem is that what VBA code when it a fresh launch of the app. how do I solve this problem?

Disable all Excel add-ins and try again, or clear the StartUp folder:

    The only way I don't get the message is if I start excel in safe mode, (Control/start) I am running 64bit windows/office 2010 with adobe X read/write. I tried disabling adobe using options/addins/ excel but it does not give you the option to disable..

    When I was on a 32 bit system and programs, this was not an issue.
