Thanks Chip. Since I don't have any add-ins and I didn't have any problems
before I imported my personal.xls file and associated xlb files, the problem
must lie in that. I will go through each step you suggested in your startup
error tutorial.

Thanks again

misbehaving add-in that references a non-existent or renamed DLL file.

Hi All,

I copied my personal.xls from my desktop to my laptop, and when I go to
run
a macro I get the "error in loading DLL" message.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Ariel
