Sounds like SmartView changed your command line for excel.exe

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

StartRun ""C:\program files\microsoft office\office11\excel.exe /regserver"(no
quotes)OK.

See the space between exe and /regserver

If no joy with the above......................

Go to StartSettingsFolderOptionsFile Types.

If using WinXP OS you would scroll down to .XLS then "Advanced"OpenEdit.

In Command line the path should be similar to this....

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE11\EXCEL.EXE" /e

You must have the double quotes and a space before the /e.

Below have "use DDE" checked and this in the DDE message box....[open("%1")]

Application should read "Excel"(no quotes)

I recently installed Hyperion Smartview and ever since then, every time I
open an excel worksheet (whether or not it is linked to smartview) an extra
worksheet (book1) opens! It isn't affecting excel at all, but it is quite
irritating because everytime I save the sheet I am using and close it, it
asks if I want to save book1.
Any ideas as to how to prevent that extra window from opening????
