Good day team.

We're getting this when opening any document in office 2010. We're running it on WinXP SP3 32 bits.

"The procedure entry point EnumCalendarinfoExEx could not be located in the dynamic link library kernel32.dll"

Haven't found any solution so far, all help is welcome.

OMG! I was having the same error message "The procedure entry point EnumCalendarInfoExEx could not be located in the dynamic link library Kernel32.dll" So I checked to see what updates had been installed since I was in the office last week... KB4462157 on 1/18/2019. Uninstalled that one and Excel is now working! I hope this fix works for you as well.

    Earl, any of the updates done this year are suspect. Do a websearch for Microsoft Office updates 2019 then look for those numbers and delete them.

    I'm getting the same error. I tried to find the "KB4462157" update to remove it, but it's not in the list of updates. I'm running Office 2010 on Windows XP. Any other updates I should look for?

    I called MS. The guy recommended I reinstall Office. Luckily this was only on my backup machine. The one (same one, add'l license) on my Windows10 machine has been working. I'd be interested to know which operating systems we all are struggling with. I can't remember if anyone has mentioned their OS on here or not.

    FYI - He offered to take control of the machine and fix it for me but my machine was too old, just being my backup.  If any of you are still stuck, give them a call. After following the telephone menu choices on the phone,  it got down to pressing the button for paid assistance or free online help, I pressed paid assistance and then explained it was their update that suddenly ruined my Office so he was OK with helping me. I had explained I had already tried all the free online help and it still didn't work. I also isolated the problem proving it was them cause I said this being my backup machine, I have it set up so that no software can execute on it so it's not a virus. (I have 2 accounts - admin rights and no admin rights and I log in with no admin rights for regular use so nothing can execute except updates.)  

    When I went to turn off my machine (after an hour of getting Office all set up again the way I like it by comparing each option, toolbar, etc. for each application - really tedious) my machine said updates were waiting but there's no way to see which ones but I'm sure it's for Office since I didn't have any updates 2 hours ago before reinstalling. I clicked on 'shut down without updates'. On my old, back up machine I have that choice. I think I'll let it 'work' for a couple of weeks and then try the updates and if it breaks again at least I'll know what needs to be done. In reference to your response, I had taken out 4462 - 186, 174, 182, 172 and 187. I didn't have 157 and not sure if I had 4461614 or not.  

    I just found this if anyone still needs this: [ https://latesthackingnews.com/2019/01/09/microsoft-pulled-january-2019-updates-due-to-an-issues-with-excel/ ]

    After repeated complaints from the users, Microsoft eventually pulled back the four updates launched for Microsoft Office 2010. These include an Update for MS Excel 2010 (KB4461627, and three updates for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB4032217KB4032225, and KB4461616).
