' nus : To resolve this issue in Office 2007 Click on the Orb, and then click on "Excel Options", Select Advanced on the left hand side, on the right hand side remove the check mark from "Ignore other applications that use dynamic data exchange" '

I think it might help me a lot if I can open my Excel program. In my case, I cant open any of my excel even blank spreadsheet. Everytime I click at excel (either at required doc or at excel program) this would appear 'Microsoft Office Excel has stopped working". Since I cant open any excel, so I cant found "Excel Options" and proceed with other steps.

Is there any other solution for my problem except than Format the whole system since all my work were kept in it. Please help me.

By the way, currently i'm using Microsoft Office 2007 / Window Vista ~ if this info can help.

I actually DID open an .xlsx file while IN Excel. The trick for me was to have it on a thumb drive. Once in Excel, I open it from the thumb and go to town.

Until recently all of a sudden excel will not open up just from the file. I have the same problem as here on these posts. I have tried the excel options, advanced and unchecked ignor other applications. Didn't help. While I have excel open, I still have to go to open, then to the file, then it opens up. Any suggestions?
