need help with attributes retrieval in VBA routine

(OP)
Belows is some code for a calculating routine. The program stops and I get Compile erro: cant find project or library. I have done a repair install Autocad 2002 and this did not help. I have noted where the routine breaks in red. any ideas would be very helpful.
 

CODE

Public acad As Object
Public doc As Object
Public ms As Object
Public ss As Object
Public ssnew As Object
Public Theatts As Variant
Public MsgBoxResp As Integer
'declare global variables


Sub UpdateAttrib(tagnumber As Integer, BTextString As String)
  'This Sub Procedure tests the attribute data to check
  'that is not a null value
  
  If BTextString = "" Then
  'if the attribute is empty
  
    Theatts(tagnumber).TextString = ""
    'put a '-' place holder
    
   Else
   'if it is not empty
   
    Theatts(tagnumber).TextString = BTextString
    'use the attribute value
