My MS office is Office 2003.

While open Excel, the sheet tab is not shown at the bottom of the workbook,
I should click Tools - Option to check the sheet tab to have the sheet tabs
every time. How can I set the Excel open the workbook with the sheet tab ?

Also, there is an extra menu shown in the top of the menu bar, i.e. File,
Edit, View, Insert, .......addin, Help. While I click the addin, a message
shown that the file solution.xls not found. How to remove the "addin" from
the menu bar.

Thanks,

Have you looked in ToolsAdd-ins for some add-in to unload?

If no joy there, with Excel closed, do a file search for Excel11.xlb

Usual storage is in

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel

Change the name to Excel11.old

Start Excel.

Thanks,

1. Try to disable all add-ins (tools add-ins)
2. search for all the XLSTART folders on your computer and empty them.
