I'm having the same error, already try to register/unregistrer but still the
same. Where do I find the "ignore other applications" field on excel 2007?

Try the usual fix(es) for this problem.

ToolsOptionsGeneral uncheck "Ignore other Applications"
Exit Excel and try again

If this doesn't work try to re-register Excel

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

1) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK.
2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.
See the space between exe and /regserver

You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe.
In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.

i cannot open any excel files directly from there location. When i try to
access the file, it will open the program to the point just before the
workbook is about to be displayed and hangs. No error messages are created
and the system does not hang. I can however, open excel files from within
excel.

Any ideas how to fix this problem?

Much appreciated
