Excel 2003 Slow Start Up

[Guest]

I am running Excel 2003 (11 & SP2), Office Standard Edition 2003,on Windows
XP.
When I launch Excel the start up is very slow compared to the other MS apps,
i.e., Word 2003, Outlook 2003, PowerPoint 2003, Access 2000 or Visio 2002
Professional.

Why might this be? What can I do to speed up the launch?

Thanks in advance.

Check to see if you have extra files opening. Items selected under Tools,
Add-in. Also any workbooks in your XLSTART folders.
