One of my users is having a problem in Excel I have never seen before.
They can not open any workbooks are sheets by double clicking them.
Either the actual workbook or a shortcut. When they try Excel opens but
the sheet doesn't, all they get a blank grey background not even a new
sheet. They can only open things from inside Excel. All the sheets are
showing as an Excel sheet and have Excel extensions. They don't have
this problem with Word.
Things I have tried to fix this.
1. Running Office repair.
2. Uninstalling Excel and reinstalling.
3. Unistalling the whole MicroSoft Office Suite and reinstalling.
4. Running windows repair.
5. Reinstalling Windows XP.
I have done everything I can think of short of reformating the drive
and starting from scratch but that cure seems to be worse the problem.
Anybody have any ideas are tips I can use?
