Excel 2007 – Files will not open a second time.

In Excel 2007 (Microsoft Office Home & Student), I can create and open a file
with no problem, initially. The problem only occurs when you try and re-open
the same, or any other Excel file. The program opens with a blank (light
blue) screen with the Customize Status Bar (normally at the bottom of the
screen) on the top, with no other visible toolbars. You cannot do anything
else, other than close the program down. The only ways you can recall
another Excel file is to either leave another Excel file open on the task bar
(i.e. minimised) or re-boot the computer. Another way is to open a Word
document and minimise it on the task bar, then you can open an Excel file.
(Office Diagnostics indicate no problems).

Anybody with any idea’s what may be the problem?
