Excel 2002 - Toolbar Problem

poleary2000 · Apr 15th, 2002, 12:14 PM

Every time I open an Excel workbook with my 2002 version, a blank icon is placed in my toolbar. This happens regardless of what version the original file was created in. Eventually, I get 15 to 20 of these blank icons on my screen. I can get them to go away by customizing the toolbar and clicking reset. But they come back again.

Any body else having problems like this?

Suggestions?

Any help? I checked the MS website and could find nothing.

Try searching for the .xlb file in windows
Move this file to a temp place JIC.
Now start up excel and see if this helps.

If it fails the restore the .xlb back to its
original location.

No - didn't help. I am corresponding with Microsoft about the problem.

Thanks.
