I can not save workbook.

[Takahiro Maeda]

Dear All,

After updating to office 10.1.4, I can not save Excel file as a workbook ( I
can save as a tab delimited file). Whenever I tried to save workbook, Excel
quits immediately.
My computer is PowerBook 2000 (firewire, G3/500) and OS is MacOS 10.2.6.
Please tell me the solution!

Thanks,

Taka

Try running Disk Utility First Aid and repair permissions. Please let us
know by posting a follow-up message if that fixes the problem.

Dear Jim,

Surprisingly, after Norton and disk utilities, many preference file (in
library) appeared again and problem was fixed after removing some files
(listed below) as suggested by Mickey before.

~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.PowerPoint.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.Excel.plist
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/PowerPoint Settings (10)
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/PowerPoint Temp
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Excel Settings (10)
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Microsoft Office Settings (10)
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Carbon Registration Database

Thanks,

Taka
