Microsoft Excel Opening Problem

[Alan]

Hi

I'm using MS Office 2000 with XP professional SP2.

Lately when opening Excel (fresh or existing xls file), it just kept
opening, non-stop, from sheet 1 and going on until I press Esc key.

However, after pressing the Esc key to stop the automatic opening of the
unwanted sheets, the program functions normally.

When closing Excel, I have to close all the unwanted opened-sheets first
before the program can exit.

Any help to retify this problem is much appreciated.

Alan

Sounds more like an Office issue than a Windows XP issue (Excel
Specifically.)

My first suggestion - try on an Office specific newsgroup - people may be
able to help you more precisely there.

Second suggestion - uninstall Excel (or Microsoft Office) and reinstall it.
