Every time I open an existing doc in Excel 97, I get an error saying
that the page is already open. When I click OK, it opens a blank doc as
well as the one I wanted............HELP!

I discovered that if you add "single space /e at the end of the path for
Excel from the start menu, open excel then open the workbook, it will
not open a new book with the existing one. I still cannot open a book
without having excel open first. That still opens 2 books.

Try the usual fix(es) for this problem.

ToolsOptionsGeneral uncheck "Ignore other Applications"
Exit Excel and try again

If this doesn't work try to re-register Excel

Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar

1) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK.
2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.
See the space between exe and /regserver

You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe.
In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK.
