Hi, i encounter this problem on a Windows 98SE notebook.
the print icon and option were greyed out but i can still
do printing by Ctrl-P. i had tried to reinstall OFfice
2000 Standard but couldn't resolve this problem.
appreciate if anyone could help me out.

Desperate.
 
Try to rename your .xlb file

maybe this is a corrupt or bloated toolbar file
*normal* size is < 30 kb.
The .xlb file has all Toolbar customization in it.

Close Excel
Do a search for .xlb in windows
Rename the file you found (mine is named Excel10.xlb in 2002)
Start Excel

Deleting the file or renaming will do no harm on your system
Excel will create a new one for you.
(You lost your customization remember that)

If you make your own toolbars or add buttons to the others
This file is important (backup it so you can restore it)
