SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Excel version 5.0, if the StatusBar argument of the Add method is used, you will receive the following error message:

428 Object doesn't support this property or method

CAUSE

In Microsoft Excel version 5.0c, new arguments were added to Add method of the Toolbar buttons collection. Versions earlier than 5.0c do not contain these arguments. Therefore, if you are using Visual Basic code in an earlier version of Microsoft Excel than version 5.0c, these new arguments will fail.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, run the macro in version 5.0c or disable the StatusBar argument.
