DDE/OLE, links, searching - don't work

E

Emma

XP Professional plus office.

Excel has been working fine for months now things have all
gone to pot.

1. Won't recognise the pdfwriter toolbar (loads ok in
Word)
2. Embedded link object won't update or open source
document (it says can't open source). I tried to change
the source document and it says there is a DDE/OLE problem.
3. If I try and embed a new linked object it shows
nothing, just a blank box.
4. When I search for a string within Windows Explorer it
doesn't recognise anything and always comes up with a 'not
found' search.
5. Won't open a file if you double click on it, but you
can drag & drop onto the excel window if open.

XP has been re-installed, Office has been re-installed,
Excel has been re-installed by it's self (plus a fix done
on them). All setting have been checked and and re-
checked. I'm out of ideas, anyone got any?
Thanks.
