Excel Book1
Problem, When I now open any existing Excel file, the following occurs eg I click on a short cut on my desktop to a file called Quote.xls as example and Excel opens 2 files at once the file I click on plus book1 so infact I have 2 excel files open. ?how do I stop the book1 file from showing
apart from hiding it? I run win98 and Office 200 I have had no hassells in the past 2mths since installing. This only occured last night. I can NOT find any Viruses nor after a complete removal of Office 200o and a new instillation still this anoying new Excel,Book1 file opens with any excel file I click on. Is there some macro hidden or a bug in Excel 2000? Thank you for your help its appreciated!

Hi ik, does this happen with any other file you open? Or only with this file? if so >It could be an auto_open macro in the Quotes.xls file, just key the ALT+F11 combi, and look in the VBE for code you did write, modules etc.
Becuase it suddenly happened I think it's a left-over of something....
Let me know,

ik,
Try /regserver. It often solves problems like this.
1. Click the Start button
2. Select 'Run'
3. Enter: c:\program files\microsoft office\office\excel.exe /regserver
(If your excel.exe is in a different location, you have to change the text above to reflect this)
4. Click 'OK'
