OLE Action Issues
 

Hi:
Pls can someone help me with this issue.

About a month ago, I had tried to check out an Excel from a document
management system that my company uses. There was an option to "check
out and open doc". So I selected that. Unfortunately, during the
sequence, the procedure hung. So, I bailed out by doing a
Ctrl-Alt-Delete and killing procedure. After that, whenever I try
opening Excel to a blank spreadsheet or an existing Excel file, I get
these error messages:

Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE
action.

ActiveX Component Can't Create Object

I get the "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object" for all MS Office
files in their native application (Word, PPT).

I have tried reinstalling the Office suite but the problem persists.
Can someone please help me with this? What should I do?

Thanks!!!

OLE Action Issues
 

I forgot to say that the document management system embeds control
within Internet Explorer (IE) for its check out/open file procedure. So
when I used Ctrl-Alt-Delete to kill the procedure, I was killing IE in
the process.
