problems at Excel 2007 loading

That's what I did too, I disabled the add-ins for excel, my problem is on
Excel 2007, but even if I uninstall office 2007 and install office 2003 I get
the problem in 2003 too, I also checked the links provided here and none of
them help with the problems since they don't mention anything about a hidden
workbook, also in office 2007 and 2003 my xlstart folders were empty, that's
the odd case.

Check all the places where your OS keeps files for XL. I had a similar
problem and xl was getting files from a few places before it got to xlstart
:)
 
I have been given a spreadsheet created in XP Pro with 2003 Excel. I was
able to open and use it with the same setup. I now have XP Pro with 2007 on
a completely new system.

When I attempt to open the file from the email attachment it acts like it is
going to open in 2007 for a few seconds. I can see the file and it looks
correct. It then shows the EUROTOOL.XLAM in the bottom of the 2007 Excel for
a second and then gives me the - Do you want to send Microsoft error notice.

I have duplicated the same results on another new system with XP Pro and
2007 Excel.

Any suggestions?

What do you know? I just installed the Service Pack 1 of Office 2007 and that
solved the Eurotool problem, I just checked it and it is working now :)
 
What does this have to do with Excel 2003 and a "compile error in hidden
module"?

Or are you so overjoyed you highjacked an irrelevant thread to share your
success?

If the latter.....good to hear.

Err... check the title of the thread my friend I did started it and in fact
the problem I had with the Eurotool was precisely a compile error too, but as
the topic advanced some user added that he had problems with Excel 2003 as
well and must have changed the title on his reply.
 
Sorry I forgot to add a thing on my other reply, I posted that also in case
the other people who had this problem in excel 2007 could solve it, because I
really doubt I'm the only one with this kind of problem, and it also can be
useful for people who browse this communities searching a solution to such
problems.
 
The title of this thread is "Problems at Excel 2003 loading".

The title of the thread you started September 30th was "Problems at Excel 2007
loading".

Mark highjacked the thread October 8th and changed the subject line to "Problems
at Excel 2003 loading".

Apologies for the confusion on my part.
