Acrord32.dll cannot be referenced any more in VBA

[pf_cgn]

For my Excel VBA projects I used a reference to the "Acrobat 10 type library"

which had the path

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\reader\AcroRd32.dll

now at our company Acrobat Reader DC has been installed. The path is not available any more

What would be analogous is

C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroRd32.dll

but this is not displayed in the reference menu and if I try to install it manually via the file menu I get an error, that the reference can not be added.

My problem is, that broken references stop the whole project, even if it does not use pdf-functionality. Removing the reference leads to compiling errors as the Acrobat objects are recognized any more.

I also have Acrobat installed, but the VBA projects should and did run (at least the code not requiring Acrobat/pdf) before, so how can I add a reference again, which defines my Adobe objects?

Hi

It's messing with my excel macros as well. I can't merge PDFs or create a collection anymore. However, I'm able to remove it from the references and the rest is working. If you find any solution, please let me know.

Cheers
