Can't open an Excel doc (w/ macros and VBA) in Excel 2011 for Mac. Anyone have any ideas (other than using a pc instead)?

Hi all,

   I am trying to open a document created in Excel in Windows on my Excel 2011 for mac copy.  The issue seems to be related to using the Macros and VB associated with the .xlsm doc.  The specific error I get in Excel is:

Compile error in hidden module: Utilities

When I try to open it in an Excel web app, or other online excel environment (whether using Firefox or Chrome) I get this message:

We can't show these features in the browser:

• VBA Project
• Shapes or other objects

few other forums suggested an issue with adobe add-ins, but I don't show one in the Excel>Tools>Addins dialogue.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
