VBA failed to initialize properly

I have the student version of Inventor 2014 installed on my computer. My O/S is Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. I have installed and reinstalled Microsoft Visual Basics three times. But, I am still getting the error "VBA failed to initialize properly". Can someone tell me what is wrong? The program was working fine for about a week with no errors reported. Now, every time I try to start a tutorial I get this error. Thanks for any assistance.

Thank you for reporting the issue.

Would you mind providing a screen shot of the error message and your application options > [File] tab setting?

We're curious to know what your "Default VBA project" is.

Best,

The problem is fixed. I went to my control panel and reinstalled the files. I don't know what caused the problem, but that fixed it.
