I have some saved workspaces in Excel 2002. E.g., one has five
workbooks saved together, another has three. When I open the
workspaces, I get warning messages about failed updates to links,
and I get an attempt to open a nonexistent workbook which results
in the open-file dialog (directory window) popping open on
my screen. I simply click Cancel and all is well as far as
the nonexistent workbook goes. I can't figure out where the
failed links are, either. I use the workbooks daily, and
have not seen any formula errors or problems. If I click
the dialog for updating links, Excel says the required workbook is
open already, and if I let Excel open it again I will lose changes.
(There are not yet changes at this point, though.) If I try to
do that anyway, Excel crashes. If I click "Continue," all is well.
If I click "Edit Links," none of the choices in there appear to do
anything helpful.

If I open the worksheets individually in series, there are no
error messages and no nonexistent file tries to open. If I
save a brand new workspace using the same files, the errors
do *not* go away. What the heck?

Also, I close the Euro-conversion toolbar and don't have it
loading automatically; yet, when I open these saved workspaces,
it always opens as a pop-up toolbar. I have to wait for Excel
to finish loading, and then I can close it. I can't figure out
why it keeps opening or how to keep it from doing so. I don't
have any euros in my workbooks, and this is a U.S.-localized
version of Excel, though I do live in Europe. (I work with
dollars, though.) I suppose I could just uninstall the toolbar,
but since I'm living in Europe, I can imagine it could be helpful
to me at some point.

Any ideas, folks?

Thanks,
