Compile Error in Visual Basic: Main Module?

[Steve Marshall]

I just started getting this pop-up applet - "Compile Error in Visual
Basic: Main Module?"- whenever I open Excel 2000 - if I just click OK,
then Excel opens and everything is fine.

I tried to do a repair function using the Office 2000 disks, but it is
still there.

Google search did not find this error message exactly except for a MAC user.

Ideas?

That is probably a badly written addin, either installed (tools > addin
menu) or a file residing in you startup folder (tools > options menu to find
where that is).

Those things are typically scanner software or acrobat/pdf writers.

HTH. Best wishes Harald

It was Stuff-it Deluxe that was causing the problem - unchecked the
Office Stuff-it box and it opens without error messages now - thanks.
