Hi Dave: Thanks for the additional information. I tried your suggestion and
the suggestions from Chip Pearson and none of them worked. Any more ideas?
I'm still able to access from /s
Thanks,
Denise

First, I'd search for just *.xlb -- maybe you'll have better luck finding it.
And remember to look through hidden folders and for hidden files.
(If starting in safe mode works, that's where I'd put my money--just a guess,
though.)
If you find any, rename them all to *.xlbold.
Then try opening excel normally.
If that doesn't help, Chip Pearson has some notes at:

That you'll want to read.

I have uninstalled Office 2000 and reinstalled. I have also tried clicking
the repair option. I have also tried the customized install with templates
checked for run from my computer.
I have read http://support.microsoft.com/default...B;EN-US;280504
Under Excel Startup Folders, I have read 240150. I do not have the folder
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft. Nor is it
under the d drive. It is not re-installing when loading.
I can start excel under /s but not under /automation.
I have searched for a excel.xlb or username.xlb file and one is not found on
c or d drive.
I renamed the excel.pip file to excelold.pip. I couldn't change the pip
extension.
Please help me to correct this problem.
Thanks,
Denise
