I know that you can use the VBA Extensability object model to access a Projects references but when I try to use the Remove method I get an error that the object doesn’t support that method. Has anyone had any experience with this?
Thanks

Patch reliability is unclear, but widespread attacks make patching prudent. Go ahead and patch, but watch out for potential problems. |

Try the following approach, where Reference2BRemoved is the refernce you wish to remove :
Dim oRef
Set oRef = Reference2BRemoved
Application.VBE.ActiveVBProject.References.Remove oRef.
That should work even without a reference to the VBA Extensability, unless of course you are trying to remove that reference.
