I have recently upgraded from Excel (Office) 97 to XP. When I open some of
our .XLS files, the row height is ridiculously large (eg over 400) and some
of the text in the cells is not visible. Sometimes the entire spreadsheed
appears as a single grey cell. This problem does *not* appear when I'm
logged in as Administrator.

I had a suggestion to run Excel in safe mode. This seems to have partially
fixed the problem.

This is just a guess. I'd look at the video driver for the non-admin. Maybe
reinstalling/installing an up-to-date driver would help.
