Not enough memory to open Excel

[gary]

I have been using MS Office Excel 2003 for months. Last week it worked just
fine. The last couple of days, I receive the following message: "Not enough
memory to run Microsoft Office Excel. Please close other applications and
try again." I have closed applications, deleted files (included all
temporary files) and I am still unable to open Excel. I have been instructed
to insert the original CD which I have done. The problem is on my laptop; my
PC works fine. Any help would be appreciated. I have used computers for
years, but I am a novice when it comes to specialized stuff. I haven't
installed anything new since last week when the Excel documents were working
fine. Thanks.

David, I posted the item for discussion and I received a message "An error
occurred while sending your post. We're sorry but there was a problem with
the system and your post was not received. The error has been reported to
Operations and will be investigated as soon as possible. Please try again
later." I also received the same message when I posted this item. I replied
to the other post with another question and I received the same error
message. So I don't know (or didn't know) if these messages were/are getting
through or not. Sorry.
