Hi I am using Win7 and Excel 2000.
Have never had problems for years, but now all of a sudden Excel will not open. Comes up with : "Windows can not access the specified device, path or file." I have been advised to reload Office 2000. A couple of questions: 1. Do I reload all of Office 2000 or is it best just to reload the excel.exe file ? 2. Will all the spreadsheet files be untouched ? 3. If I reload Office 2000 or the excel.exe , will lose any add-in's that exist at the moment. not really a problem as I can still reload the add-in 4. There maybe other options you can suggest. At about the same time I had downloaded ASAP Excel utility. I have now removed from computer. No improvement though with opening Excel. I have tried to open Excel in 'safe' mode' no luck. Double clicked the .exe file itself, no luck, did a registry clean with ccleaner no luck. Did a virus scan on critical areas, no luck. Look forward to receiving good addvice to resolve my problem.
