You might try first searching Excel Help for "reset toolbars" and check out
the instructions about how to reset the Menu bars. You'll start by choosing
Tools | Customize and then identify the particular menu and reset it.
Hopefully this will be a start for you.

That commonly means you have a corrupt setting. With Excel closed run
Regedit.exe from Start->Run. Then go to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Excel\Options

press F2 and rename it to, say, "OptionsX".

Then try Excel Options again. You may lose some customizations but no big
deal.
