This is cause by the TextBridge OCR add in, a third party add-in.
Go to the Tools menu in Excel, and uncheck the Text Bridge
add-in.

I looked under add ons and nothing was checked and texrbridge was not
mentioned either.

I'm pretty sure this file gets installed to the XLStart directory. If
you did a default installation of Office the path will be:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\XLStart

Delete any file with a name similar to TBRun9.xls

Ok, I went to that file, there were only two things in there, the PDF file
and then one named wfxl2000.xls which says it was modified in 2003. There is
nothing in there relating to the TBRun9

Ok, I did a search, I found three files that had TBRun9 in and I deleted all
3 of them, says they were textbridge and set up in 2000. I still get the
same error and I rebooted the computer. Any more ideas?

Hi Kathy,

That means there still has to be more copies of them somewhere. I'd make
sure Explorer is set to show hidden files and do another search of all your
hard drives. According to the Microsoft Knowledge Base, the two files that
cause this error are named TBRun9.xls and TBRun97.xls.

Good job, Kathy! Glad you figured it out.

That got rid of the dratted thing. I removed every instance to that on the
computer, there were several on there. Not only in Excel but several other
places.
Once I got rid of the one in Excel everything was fine. Should I put the
other two back on there since they had nothing to do with Excel? I actually
found the solution in the Article 272066 that you referred me to go to,
followed the steps and voila, it went away. That could drive you nuts after
awhile.

Hi Kathy,

I wouldn't put any of them back, no. They are only for use with Excel,
but they were designed to work with previous versions of Excel and are not
compatible with current versions.
