xJane,
I don't have xl2003, but you are probably seeing the task pane.
In the top right corner of the task pane is an X, which when clicked
will hide it. Also, on the menu bar (that's the very top one) under View
is the menu item "Task pane". Clicking that toggles it on and off.

What if that doesn't work? I've tried on excel and word to uncheck that task
pane box and when I close the documents and reopen new ones it's there again.
I want it off Permanently. Thanks

Help>Online Content Settings

Uncheck the option for "Show Template Help etc."
