Default Unable to start my Excel files

Sometimes one of these works:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.

One of my users have this odd issue with his Excel 2003. He's unable to start
the files directly but instead he must start a blank excel sheet then open
his files from there. Is there a solution to this issue?

Please advise.
Thanks!
