When I double-click on an Excel file to open it, I get a series of several
messages that files could not be found. Each message lists the name of a
file that does not, and never has existed on my computer.

The files I am opening are files that I have created, or edited before.
Windows XP SP2, Excel 2003

How do I find out where these file prompts are coming from?

Update: Ahter writing down the name of each file, I noticed that the files
it is looking for are each word in the path.
e.g. My.xls, Documents.xls, Project.xls, Files.xls, etc.

How does this work?
