When I try to run the VB editor, it terminates the entire Excel process. This happens from any Excel spreadsheet on one particular machine. I've done the repair installation with the same results.

VBA isn't installed by default I don't believe - is it installed on this
machine? If it is, then
Probably next step would be to completely uninstall Office, then install to
a new directory.

Others may have better ideas - so no rush in uninstalling.

Yes, I did a custom install and VB and .NET were selected for installation
Rather than installing to a new directory, can I uninstall, delete the directory and then install to the same directory name.

Before uninstalling, try unregistering Excel and reregistering. go to the
Start=Run (with Excel closed)

in the box put in



excel /unregserver
and click Run
then
put in
excel /regserver
and click run

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

If that doesn't work then:

I would install to a new directory incase there are corrupted files that
don't get uninstalled or there are some goofy registry setting.

Obviously you could try reinstalling as you prefer to and if that doesn't
fix it, then try uninstalling again and installing to a new directory.

I couldn't find anything in the Knowledge base specific to your problem.
Here are some articles of general interest related to problems with office
and uninstalling.
