Default "automation error" "unspecified error"

Try removing any addins that you have. Also remove personal.xls from the
xlStart folder. Both of those can have code that would run when you open XL
and or a spreadsheet. If that solves your problem then we just need to narrow
down which one is causing the problem...

When opening Excel, I get multiple instances of this error in a Microsoft
Visual Basic error box. It also happens when I open an existing spreadsheet
and when I edit the worksheet.

There is no error number.

Everything seems to work fine, it is just annoying as heck.

I have tried a repair, and a repair/reinstall. Neither has worked.

I have not uninstalled Office and reinstalled it.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.
