effu,
Have you tried to repair your installation of Excel?
1. Open Excel
2. Under Help in the toolbar choose Detect & Repair.
3. You may need to have your MS Office installation CDs handy, so the repair
process can extract "new" files into the appropriate folders.
4. Follow repair directions.

I have had the same problem for two months now. In addition to that, I lost
some excel files. I tried everything, gone through MS web pages, Simply, It
just wont work. Every time, I try to install the updates manually, I receive
a pop up asking for path to Pro!!! (like Bro in wsup bro). What I am
suspecting is the uninstallation of openoffice.org Prog. On my PC. That
might deleted shortcuts or paths for the updates. Dose any one know what is
the path for MS Office (or Pro)? bro

I am running Windows XP Home, and recently updated to SP3. The Windows
updater is now trying to install the following update:
Security Update for Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (KB951548)
However, every time it tries, I just get the message, "Some updates could
not be installed," with that update listed.
As a result, my computer is continually downloading, trying to install,
and
then failing to install that update. It's getting really annoying.
Is there a way I can get it to stop trying to install that update, or
otherwise fix the problem? It doesn't tell me why it can't install the
update.
Thanks.
