Hello;

Recently, I've been getting the following Excel (XL2003 SP2, Win XP) message:
"Microsoft Excel for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience", with options to "Send error Report" or
"Don't Send".
Sending error reports does not appear (so far) to solve the problem !!!

1. Can someone please advise on how to get rid of this annoying message ?
2. If some Excel files are corrupt, can Excel be repaired ?
3. Do I've to re-install Excel ?
4. Do you need more info. about the message ? ... so that next time the
message pops up, I write down relevant notes.

Thank you kindly.
