Retired geek, I had same problem again with another spreadsheet, apparently I did not load “name manager”.
However, resetting did not work, it then gives again the message: “can’t find….”. Any other ideas?

Thanks RetiredGeek, it works but don’t know how! I must have added in the right add-ins!
Will try to use it, if it happens again.

Zeddy, perhaps some semantics:

Am afraid that if I start to load 2010 after 2003, I get the message: “do you want to upgrade”and then the answer should be “NO”. Being a nerd and a Murphy-fan I sometimes see more potential problems, than there actually may be.

On my original question: have just restored my Dell PC to factory settings and am about to reload 2003, tehn 2010! Did not need a Win7 disk

We will see, over and out txs, MB47

Zeddy, thanks for your reply.

What if this is not an upgrade, but on an empty PC? MS recommends Office 2003 first, then 2010, KB2121447.

But then I don’t upgrade, just install a second version.

Does yr version of Excel2010 keep all settings (trusted locations, ribbon customisation etc) when you save a file(to a template?)

I have same problem; Had Office 2010 plus Excel 2003 installed under Windows 7; found that I should have installed Office 2010 first and then Excel 2003. I corrected that.

Still no luck! So I completely removed Excel 2003, no luck. The registry location mentioned does not show ….14officeappname, only ….system certificates and windows . Under softwaremicrosoftoffice it still shows ….Office11

Should I completely delete (or rename to ….office11old?)
Any advice appreciated, Maarten
