Yes. What OS and update level, what version of Office or Excel? From
your Run command, enter msconfig, select the Startup tab, and report
what you have running at startup. How much RAM?

Excel 97 or 2000?

If so then one possible problem is a corruption of your
toolbar customisation file. Locate all files with extension .xlb and rename
the extension(s) to something like .old

Now try and start XL again.

Note though that you will lose any toolbar customisations

I dont believe so. The issue was pretty much fixed in XL2002

See if any of these help - Post is from Jan Karel Pieterse.

Hi,

Try opening Excel without any addins or hidden workbooks:

Start, Run,
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\Excel.exe" /Automation

Quotes mandatory, Note you may have to change the path.

If your error disappears, there is either an add-in or a
(hidden) workbook that is loaded upon XL's start, which
bothers you.

- Try locating the XLSTART directory, move everything from
there.
- In XL: Tools, Addins, note the ones checked and uncheck
them one at the time, each time restarting XL
- In XL, Tools, options, general. Check if a path is
entered after "Alternate startup file location". Clear it.

Another option is to open XL in Safe mode:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Excel.exe" /Safe

Also, you might try:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office\Excel.exe" /Regserver

Yet another possible problem is a corruption of your
toolbar customisation file. Locate all files with
extension .xlb and rename the extension(s) to something
like .old
Now try and start XL again.

Also, NAV has shown to cause "Excel caused an invalid page
fault in module VBE6.DLL".
You might try disabling the Office plug in of NAV.

Finally, this is what MS has to say:
