error

[Jay]

I have a new pc with XP Pro and Office XP with 512Kb of
RAM. I keep getting a message in Excel that displays: Not
enough system resources to display completely. I can not
do anything until I exit out of Excel. I am not working
with large files at all. I sometimes have word or IE open
at the same time but this should not happen. Does anyone
know anything that I can do? Thanks in advance.

Hi Mark,
concerning your webpage.

I certainly would not suggest arbitrarily deleting .xlb (toolbar files),
as one would lose all of their own customizations to toolbars.
Some people do make extensive modifications to their toolbars.
You might want to rename them and figure out if that was a problem.

Likewise for deleting the contents of the XLSTART, some people
may have macros in a personal.xls file, and might even have other
files there as well (whether they belong there or not).
