cant open MS Excel files

R

OS: 98
I cannot open excel 2000 files by double clicking them
(from windows explorer or a shortcut on the desktop).
The error message is "cannot find the file 'file name' (or
one of its components). Make sure the path and filename
are correct and that all required libraries are
available."
I can open the same files from within excel just fine.
I have
1. restored the registry,
2. repaired the installation of ms office
3. repaired excel
4. removed excel and reinstalled.
Still cannot open any excel file by double clicking. Can
open other document types by double clicking (word,
powerpoint).
I figure it is some setting in the registry.
Anyone know which key(s) would be messed up and what
change I need to make?
