I receive the following two errors when I use MS Excel. I am running Windows XP Pro on a Dell Laptop (Inspiron 8200) 256 RAM 80 Gig HD.

The first error only appears when I initially open Excel:

Microsoft Visual Basic
"compile error in hidden module:AutoExecNew"

I receive the next error only when I close Excel

Microsft Visual Basic
"compile error in hidden moduele:DistMon"

If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Vernon

Perhaps you could also try a different copy of the installation source of office due to the possibility that the install source could be corrupted

Hmm, I have it on CD. I did make a backup of the CD a long time ago. I will look for the backup CD and try installing it off that and see what happens.

Excel Facts

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
I found my backup copy and uninstalled it and reinstalled it and I am still getting the same errors.

Any more ideas please?

Ok. I went to the last resort that I know of other then formating my hard drive and I am not going to do that.

I completely uninstalled Microsoft Office and then deleted the Microsoft Office folder. Then I reinstalled it and it still does not work.

Does anyone have any other ideas?
