Getting an error message that reads "illegal operation....VBE6.DL.
When I try to close an excel spread sheet I get an illegal operation warning.
When I click on details it says that excel performed an illegal operation in VBE6.DLL. I uninstalled and reinstalled Office Standard 2000, but get the same result. |

If you open excel in safe mode, does it happen?
close excel windows start button|Run excel /safe This stops excel from loading a lot of stuff. If safe mode didn't help, then I think I'd try Help|Detect and repair (although I would guess that reinstalling would have the same effect). If safe mode did help... One of the things that excel does when it's closing is update the toolbar file (where customizations are kept). This toolbar file can get corrupted and cause trouble (not sure if yours is caused by this, though). You could try this: close excel windows start button|search look for *.xlb rename all the files you find to *.xlbOLD. The start excel normally and close it up. If excel still crashes, then the toolbar file wasn't the trouble. Rename all the *.xlbOLD files back to *.xlb. If it did help, then delete all those *.xlbOLD files. You will have to re-do all your customizations, though. Liz wrote: Yes, it seems to happen with all workbooks "Fredrik Wahlgren" wrote: "Liz" wrote in message ...

EXCEL caused an invalid page fault in
module VBE6.DLL at 017f:6500dbb9.

Maybe I should explain further. We have a newer computer with Excel 2003 on it. We copied an excel file from the newer version and opened it on our old computer. Could this be affecting all of the older excel files? I haven't tried your suggestion as yet. Thank you.

It only happens to the old one, right? /Fredrik |

I can't make head from tail on this kind of message. I don't know anyone who
can decipher that stuff. Does it happen with all your files--even if you create one in xl2003, save, close and reopen it?
