Problem with Excel
Hi Everyone,
I am running Office XP. The problem I have is with Excel. When I open the application some of the Icons are greyed out (open folder, undo, redo, copy and paste, etc). Even when a document is open they are still greyed out. I had this problem some time ago and a colleague of mine to me to go into Tool and Option and to tick/untick a box and it worked. However I cannot remember what this option was. Any ideas? I have tried everything I can think of. Many thanks. Andy |

Problem with Excel
Your colleague could have reset a toolbar or two. But that's not under
Tools|Options. It's under Tools|Customize. Tools|Customize|toolbars tab select each of the toolbars you want to reset and then click the reset button. You can reset all the toolbars by doing this: Close excel windows start button|search look for *.xlb (Look in hidden folders for hidden files, too) rename them all to *.xlbOLD Restart excel to test it out. If it worked, delete those *.xlbOLD files. If not close excel and rename them back to *.xlb. This will remove any customized changes from your toolbars.
