Default opening Excel files from desktop

about 6 months ago Excel closed from errors generated when the copy tab to
another workbook command was used. upon reboot, could no longer open Excel
files from desktop; had to be inside Excel to open file. If attempting to
open from desktop would get error message: "cannot find the file 'C/Documents
and Settings/Administrator/Desktop/Work/Excel Workpapers/filename.XLS (or one
of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all
required libraries are available". Tried reinstalling the Registry, didn't
work. Tried Excel problem solver, didn't help. Tried reinstalling Small
Business, did'nt help. Am using Excel 5.0 under Windows Professional 2000 on
an IBM laptop. How do I fix this?
