error messages when starting and exiting
I get the error message in excel - "compile error in hidden module:
autoexecnew" when i start excel and Distmon when I exit. I do notice that i have "non-commercial use" in the title bar. Not sure but it could be that i upgraded to office 2007 on my new laptop with vista ultimate but still using it on my old one until all my data is moved over especially outlook. I am thinking that the activation process may have added that to the words in the title bar (it is on all programs - outlook, excel, word, and powerpoint) but not sure if that is what is causing the errors. I did not have these errors on my old pc using xp. thank you. |

This may help................. See KB article http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;q307410 The PDFMaker.xla and maybe PDFMaker.dot are stored in your Office\XLSTART folder or in the Excel\XLSTART folder. Any files in these folders will open with Excel. You must remove them from the XLSTART folder.

Gord,
Thank you. I think this is my problem. A couple of questions. I am using office 2007 on vista. I tried to install acrobat 5.0 but it failed since it cannot run in vista. I suspect it still loaded those files. I since have installed cutepdf and pdfcreator vs. acrobat 5.0. The question i have is do you know where the startup is located for office in 2007 in vista? In xp i can see the documents and settings folder (by selecting to view system and hidden files and folders) but in vista, i cannot see the folder "documents and settings" or any other windows folder that is used - that is, also the location for the outlook .pst files. I cannot see those folders even though I know where they are based on outlook options. thank you again. Mark "Gord Dibben" wrote: Mark This may help.................

I don't have Vista or 2007 installed so can't be much(any?) help with folder locations. Others can help and I'm sure someone will. Watch this thread.
