I start my Xl2007 application with an desktop icon.
The destination for the icon is the macro path e.g. c:\test\mymacro.xla.
It worked for a long time. But after an unplanned crash it's not possible to start the application via desktop icon.
When I try to start the program via icon I get the error message "can't find c:\program.xlsx". I've never created or heard about this file.
If I open the application inside Excel (start Excel first) it runs.
There is no change in the icon destination. I also tried to write the excel.exe path in front of the macro destination with no change.
I have no idea what's the difference to open the xla within excel or to open it via icon.
There is only Excel 2007 on the computer. OS is Vista.

TIA
