The reason I ask is because there was an issue in Version 2002(I believe)
since fixed by one of the Service Packs.

Perhaps you have entered more than 53 characters in the file path to your
default file location in ToolsOptionsGeneral or in the Autorecovery path.

Try re-naming folders in the path to come up with less than 53 characters then
re-enter your new path.

You will have to edit the path in Windows Explorer or in the registry in order
to change the path if you can't get in through ToolsOptions.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\E xcel\OptionsDefault Path

Enter your new path here.
