Excel Menu Problem

[Guest]

Have no idea what happened. Using Excel 2003. Now, I don't have a File or
Edit menu. I've tried right clicking on the menu bar and selecting customize
but that doesn't help. Iv'e tried reset, but nothing.
've been able to add some the File and Edit features to the View menu (which
is now my first menu), but printing is gone (among other things). Now I have
these menus:
view, insert, format, tools, data, window, help, Adobe PDF.
On rare occasion, the File and Edit menus appear (on start up of Excel) but
then disappear. I'm using XP SP1.

THANKS!!!

Search for your menu customization file, *.xlb, and move it to
another location. The name and location of this file depends on
your version of Windows and Excel, so search for *.xlb. Also,
this file may be hidden, so be sure to search for hidden files.

Thanks! That worked perfectly. I guess Excel just receates it as it neesd to.

BUT...

One other problem, I didn't mention before: That cell contents text box...I
don't know the name of it...it is usually just below the menu bar or one of
the tool bars...it too is gone.

BUT AT LEAST I have my file and edit menus back!
