Problem encountered

[Pat]

Anyone know what can cause excel2000 to terminate when opening up a
particular workbook. If I logoff WindowsXP and switch user the workbook
opens up fine. This is very annoying.

Just a guess...

It could be a corrupted toolbar.

You could check if it is the toolbar file by:
close excel
windows search
search for *.xlb
(in hidden folders for hidden files, too)

Rename all the *.xlb files you find to *.xlbOLD

Then restart excel and see if that helps.

If it does, then rebuild any customized changes to the toolbar at your
convenience.

If it doesn't, then close excel and rename all those *.xlbOLD back to *.xlb.
