   Hmm... If VBA.Strings.Right() would not have worked either and you find   
   no definition of Right() in the object browser I would have suggested to   
   check if the VBA library is referenced correctly, but now when   
   VBA.Strings.Right() works I do not know really...   
      
   If you look in Project -> References in the project where Right() does   
   not work, is the same "Visual Basic For Applications" library referenced   
   there as it is in a new project? If not, select the same VBA library as   
   you get for new projects. (This could be a bit tricky, you may have to   
   edit the object references in the .vbp file manually.)
