I have a user who when opening Excel receives Cannot access
"NTUSER.DAT" and Cannot access "NTUSER.DAT.LOG" error messages.
Everything else seems to work fine. Any ideas?

NTUSER.DAT concerns profiles. Each user has an NTUSER.DAT file.

Some google search threads with some info and a couple of fixes.

You could try re-registering Excel first.

Start>Run "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes and note the space before the /
mark).

Start>Run "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes and note the space before the /
mark).

You may have to enter your full path to excel.exe....in that case surround
with quotes as in..... "C:\mypath\to Excel\somewhere\excel.exe" /regserver
