For example, the properties and methods of the VBE object for manipulating the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code that is stored in a Microsoft Office document are inaccessible by default. To turn on trusted access to Visual Basic Projects, do the following: Enable the Developer tab on the ribbon. See Show the Developer tab for more. Client has run into this error when Launching FRX. Paths in System.cfg and FRX32.cfg files are accessible. The only other reference I have been able to find was a.
-->Microsoft Visual Basic Runtime Error 53 On A Windows 10
Generates a run-time error.
Syntax
object.Raisenumber, source, description, helpfile, helpcontext
The Raise method has the following object qualifier and named arguments:
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| object | Required. Always the Err object. |
| number | Required. Long integer that identifies the nature of the error. Visual Basic errors (both Visual Basic-defined and user-defined errors) are in the range 0–65535. The range 0–512 is reserved for system errors; the range 513–65535 is available for user-defined errors. When setting the Number property to your own error code in a class module, you add your error code number to the vbObjectErrorconstant. For example, to generate the error number 513, assign vbObjectError + 513 to the Number property. |
| source | Optional. String expression naming the object or application that generated the error. When setting the Source property for an object, use the form project.class. If source is not specified, the programmatic ID of the current Visual Basic project is used. |
| description | Optional. String expression describing the error. If unspecified, the value in Number is examined. If it can be mapped to a Visual Basic run-time error code, the string that would be returned by the Error function is used as Description. If there is no Visual Basic error corresponding to Number, the 'Application-defined or object-defined error' message is used. |
| helpfile | Optional. The fully qualified path to the Help file in which help on this error can be found. If unspecified, Visual Basic uses the fully qualified drive, path, and file name of the Visual Basic Help file. See HelpFile. |
| helpcontext | Optional. The context ID identifying a topic within helpfile that provides help for the error. If omitted, the Visual Basic Help file context ID for the error corresponding to the Number property is used, if it exists. See HelpContext. |
Remarks
All of the arguments are optional except number. If you use Raise without specifying some arguments, and the property settings of the Err object contain values that have not been cleared, those values serve as the values for your error.
Raise is used for generating run-time errors and can be used instead of the Error statement.
Raise is useful for generating errors when writing class modules, because the Err object gives richer information than is possible if you generate errors with the Error statement. For example, with the Raise method, the source that generated the error can be specified in the Source property, online Help for the error can be referenced, and so on.
Example
This example uses the Err object's Raise method to generate an error within an Automation object written in Visual Basic. It has the programmatic ID MyProj.MyObject. On the MacIntosh, the default drive name is 'HD' and portions of the pathname are separated by colons instead of backslashes.

-->An error occurred trying to access the specified file. This error has the following causes and solutions:
Microsoft Visual Basic Runtime Error 53 On A Mac
A statement refers to a file with a file number or file name that is:
Not specified in the Open statement or was specified in an Open statement, but has since been closed. Specify the file name in an Open statement. Note that if you invoked the Close statement withoutarguments, you may have inadvertently closed all currently open files, invalidating all file numbers.
Out of the range of file numbers (1 - 511). If your code is generating file numbers algorithmically, make sure the numbers are valid.
There is an invalid name or number.
File names must conform to operating system conventions as well as Basic file-naming conventions.
In Microsoft Windows, use the following conventions for naming files and directories:
The name of a file or directory can have two parts: a name and an optional extension. The two parts are separated by a period, for example, myfile.new.
The name can contain up to 255 characters.
The name must start with either a letter or number. It can contain any uppercase or lowercase characters (file names aren't case-sensitive) except the following characters: quotation mark ('), apostrophe ('), slash (/), backslash (**), colon (:), and vertical bar (|**).
The name can contain spaces.
The following names are reserved and can't be used for files or directories: CON, AUX, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, PRN, and NUL. For example, if you try to name a file PRN in an Open statement, the default printer will simply become the destination for Print # and Write # statements directed to the file number specified in the Open statement.
On the Macintosh, a file name can include any character except the colon (:), and can contain spaces. Null characters (Chr(0)) aren't allowed in any file names.
For additional information, select the item in question and press F1 (in Windows) or HELP (on the Macintosh).
