Post subject: Cannot find file or one of its components. Add to elertz Archived from groups: microsoft>public>excel>templates (more info?)
Hi,
I'm using Excel 2000 and windows 2000 professional.
This started about two days ago:
When I double click on an xlt file, my computer returns:
Cannot find the file 'K:\Customer Service\Quote\Cost Roll-up.xlt'(or
one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct
and that all required libraries are available.
I thought my file was corrupt.
But the file works properly for other users.
I copied the file to my c drive and it still returns the message.
In fact, I cannot double click any Excel template file without getting
the message.
I can open the file by opening an instance of Excel and choosing file/
open.
I know of no changes to my computer recently other than adding another
500 kb memory.

Try the usual fix for this.
Tools>Options>General Uncheck "Ignore Other Applications"
You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe.
In that case Start>Run "C:\yourpath\excel.exe" /regserver(quotes required)>OK.

Hi,
Perhaps you need to reinstall excel. If this still not work, you may
try to recover the template. If necessary, you can try Advanced Excel
Repair at http://www.datanumen.com/aer/ This tool is rather useful in
salvaging damaged Excel xls files. Hope this can help.
