Getting msg: File conversion in progress ...
I'm using MSO Professional 2003 / Excel 2003 SP3. Every time I open Excel,
either by double-clicking an existing spreadsheet or by accessing Excel directly (to create a new spreadsheet), a small window opens displaying the message: 'File conversion in progress ...'. I don't know where to begin searching for this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike |

I don't recall ever seeing a message like this.
If you open excel in safe mode: close excel windows start button|Run type excel /safe then file|Open do you get the same message? If the problem doesn't go way, then ignore this message! But if the problem goes away, are you ready to do some detective work to find out the culprit? Chip Pearson has some notes on how to diagnose startup errors: http://www.cpearson.com/excel/StartupErrors.htm And Jan Karel Pieterse has more notes: http://www.jkp-ads.com/Articles/StartupProblems.asp Essentially, you'll turn off all the addins/startup workbooks and then open excel. And then turn on each addin (closing and reopening) one at a time to find the culprit. Mike M. wrote: I'm using MSO Professional 2003 / Excel 2003 SP3.

ps. What is the extension for the file that you're opening?
If it's .xls, are you sure you saved as a normal workbook? Mike M. wrote: I'm using MSO Professional 2003 / Excel 2003 SP3.
