2014-08-11T07:06:47+00:00 Dear Graham,
We've Disabled/Enabled all the Macros and checked it, not working. It is .xls file. We're able to convert it to .XML format in a different PC which is running with windows 7 and MS office 2010, which was recently installed. It is also working in MS office 2007 too. Can we compare the settings in both the PC.
We're facing this issue in a PC that running Windows 8, with MS office 2010, 2013.
Looking forward to your reply.

My guess is that the macro module FileBrowser contains macro code that has now been superseded. If you can open the macro code module you can fix it. If not you will have to throw it back whence it came.
