Could not load object

Someone was helping me with an excel project, nothing out of ordinary, as
I love XL but have little knoledge of it.
After I started working in excel again, everytime I open excel for the first
time
I get this message :
"MICROSOFT FORMS"
"Could not load object because is not available in this machine"
I don't know what an object is, I don't need it, I just want this message to
dissapear everytime I open xl.
I tried everything, nothing seems to work.
Yes, I also tried to reach my "friend", he is unreacheable.
Hoping to find another friend in this group. THANKS.

I would first try to correct the problem by running Excel with the
/regserver option. Close Excel and then go to the Windows Start menu.
There, choose Run and enter the following and click OK.

Excel.exe /regserver

If you get a "file not found" error, you'll need to provide the full
file name of Excel, typically

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OfficeNN\Excel.exe" /regserver

Change NN to the version number (Excel 2000 = 9, Excel 2002 = 10,
Excel 2003 = 11, Excel 2007 = 12).

The /regserver switch tells Excel to start up, rewrite all of its
configuration keys back to "factory defaults" and then quit. Now start
Excel normally.If you still have problems, open Excel, go to the Help
menu and choose "Detect And Repair".

See http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/StartupErrors.aspx for a number of
other methods you can use to diagnose and fix problems with Excel.
