Cannot close Excel - getting "Do you want to save the changes in solver.xla"

O

ooorg

Some of our users are having a problem with a workbook in Excel 2003
SP2.

A macro in the workbook references solver.xla, and whenever the users
try to close Excel with this workbook open, the dialog "Do you want to
save the changes in solver.xla" appears. If the workbook is closed
first, the user is not presented with the dialog, and Excel can be
closed normally.

This doesn't happen to all users of this workbook. I've opened it on
my pc from a users desktop, but I don't get the dialog, even though
the user is experiencing the problem. No other plugins are active.

But solver add-in should never ever be changed by another workbook if
I've understood the purpose of the add-in correctly? On my pc,
solver.xls has a modified date of 2000-11-09, so I'm pretty confident,
that normal operations shouldn't do any changes to this add-in, and
that it doesn't save any changes without asking.

Hope you can help.

Could anyone at least confirm or correct my notion that Excel under no
circumstances should need to save any changes to solver.xla?
