Great tip! I was ready to reinstall Excel, but your tip solved my problem
loading personal.xls.

Thank you,

xl2002+ has the abililty to quarantine what it thinks are bad workbooks.

They can keep track of them so that it doesn't even try to open them.

If you look under Help|About MS Excel, you'll see a button called: "Disabled
Items...".

Check under there to see if it's marked not to open. You can enable it there,
too.

If the workbook is really bad, you may want to delete that copy and put a copy
of your backup version into your XLStart folder.

(If you don't have a backup, take the time now and create one.)

Hello-

My personal.xls file was working just fine for a while but now it is not
loading up when I start Excel. The path is:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\XLStart

Anyone have any ideas?
