Interesting fault. Involves Excel only. Can not open all excel file from
explorer or via shortcuts. Comes up with an error of path or part of
document cannot be found. The document opens fine if you open Excel and
drill down through the directory to the file select it and open. Have
reinstalled Office 2000 and SP1. No other users are having the same problem.
Word, Access etc are fine. Just Excel. Also have recreated shortcuts and
moved and copied files to the local drive, still the same.

Sometimes one of these works:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.
