Yesterday, Excel 2003 under Window XP Home stopped loading my
personal.xls. I'm sure it had a reason. I could open personal.xls by
clicking on it in the XLSTART folder and it would load fine which
surprised me for it always said 'Personal.XLS' was already running.
After trying several times, I did a system restore to a point earlier
in the day and after it finished rebooted, I got a notice that
instructed me to go to Help/About Microsoft Excel and look at the
disabled items. Sure enough, the Personal.xls addin was disabled. I
enabled it and things are fine.
Somewhere in the process I noticed something about Excel having been
started in the Safe Mode because 'A serious error' occurred. I've no
idea what the serious error was nor what caused it but wonder what the
Excel Safe Mode is and can it started manually?
No big deal, just curious.
Thank you.
