Hi guys,
This is driving me nuts! I have run into this problem more
times than I can count. Does anyone know what it is I am
doing wrong or what to do to fix the problem.

"BdStart.xls is locked for editing" message appears in
every excel file I open. Please help! Thank you so much.

Several Posts about this back a year or two. Can be found at Google.

One Poster said he could rename it.

Try to delete from the XLSTART folder or move it out.

You might have to go into DOS to delete it.

None of the Posters with the problem knew where it had come from. Just
appeared so maybe is a viral thing. Although one poster mentions it happens
only with files converted from Quattro Pro??
