Netware / Excel problem???

I posted this in the software forum and then thought you guys might be more help.

I?ve got a building where when my users open Excel many of the files in there home directory open automatically (not only excel files). If they close all of the files excel works fine, but it's pretty annoying to have to close 2-25 files every time you open excel.

I'm running Netware 5.1 and Office 97 Pro.

Any idea what my problem might be?

Thanks for the help.
 
Odd. Have you had one of the users open Excel without running any auto-executes? Try opening Excel while holding down the Shift key - that usually deactivates any auto_activate macros.

Just a guess.....
 
I have no idea why it started happening all of a sudden, but I found that if I removed the alternate file location entry everything is ok. That makes no sense to me though as both the default and alternate file locations were pointing to the same place.

Hey if it works, I guess I'm happy.

Thanks for the help.
