Sometimes the .xlb (file that excel uses to store changes to the toolbars) can
get hosed.

Delete it (or rename it to *.xlbOLD) and test it.

If it works, then toss *.xlbOLD and rebuild your toolbars.

Here's some links for further reading.

Chip Pearson has some notes on how to diagnose startup errors at:

And Jan Karel Pieterse has more notes at:
