Excel 2007 bug?
Vista/Office Ultimate
VS2005/VSTO2005 SE Maybe someone else has already reported this but: Note: this happens incidently upon clean (no addin interference) Excel 2007 start up. Excel starts up with a practically blank screen. The only things visible a Page layout buttons and the zoom slider (right bottom controls) and all positioned on top(!) of the screen. The rest of the screen is entirely blank. Additionally, when trying to shut Excel down using ALT+F4, the Vista shutdown dialog appears. In this case, Excel needs to be shut down by closing the instance from the taskbar also because the application Min/Max/Close buttons aren't available (or visible) As stated, this happens appr. once every 10 (clean) start ups. Has anyone experienced this? If so, is MS already informed of this? -- Krgrds, Perry System: Vista/Office Ultimate VS2005/VSTO2005 SE |

I don't have your software setup, but just the Alt-F4 issue immediately
makes me think you have a sticky control key or something similar (err... I guess Ctrl-Alt-Del is what would bring up the shutdown dialog). Ctrl takes my Excel into safe mode, although it does give me a warning while loading. If you have an extra keyboard available? It would be interesting to know if you still see the same symptoms once the possibility of sticky keys is eliminated... Please keep us posted, if you do find a way to replicate this on other machines, or if you determine the actual root cause.

Ctrl takes Application simply doesn't have focus, system is prompted for Shutdown (because of ALT+F4), if no other windows are active. No, problem can be re-produced as follows: - Close all other programs - Open Windows Explorer - Startup Excel 2007 either from Programs under start, or fire "Excel.exe" from the Start | Searchbox The problem (possible bug) appears to be limited to Windows Explorer being opened when starting up Excel. If Windows Explorer isn't open, I can't re-produce this fenomenon. -- Krgrds, Perry System: Vista/Office Ultimate VS2005/VSTO2005 SE "Keith" schreef in bericht ...
