The PDFMaker.xla and maybe PDFMaker.dot are stored in your Office\XLSTART
folder or in the Excel\XLSTART folder.

Any files in these folders will open with Excel.

You must remove them from the XLSTART folder.

I get the error message in excel - "compile error in hidden module:

have "non-commercial use" in the title bar. Not sure but it could be that i
upgraded to office 2007 on my new laptop with vista ultimate but still using
it on my old one until all my data is moved over especially outlook. I am
thinking that the activation process may have added that to the words in the
title bar (it is on all programs - outlook, excel, word, and powerpoint) but
not sure if that is what is causing the errors. I did not have these errors
on my old pc using xp. thank you.
