A coworker installed Adobe Acrobat 5.0 on there computer and now every time
they open excel, or word, they get and error message: Microsoft visual basic
"compile error in hidden module: auto exec new", I don't think this is
totally an excel problem but I thought with all the gurus here I would give
it a try, anybody have any thoughts on this? Have tried uninstalling acrobat
and reinstalling it with no luck. Running office '97 with windows 95 on this
computer. Thanks, Paul B
