Default Excel on desktop

When I open an excel doc that has been saved on the desktop an error comes up
that the path can not be found. This is not a short cut. If I open a new
excel and go to file and drill to it on the desktop it opens just fine. I've
tried save as, copying the data to a new sheet and it all comes up the same.
I did a repair on office then a clean install to no avail. Any thoughts? Is
this an Office problem or possibly a windows issue?

worked like a charm. It was one of our salesman and of course he swears he
didn't touch it. Thanks again.
