What do I do? Excel freezes up.

I know this works in excel 2002. It should work in other versions.

Problem:
You open excel, it freezes up your computer and says there is not enough memory.


Fix:
Uninstalling excel will and reinstalling will not fix this problem. More than likely, the menu file is corrupt. With excel closed, open windows explorer and do a search for ".xlb" without the quotes. This is your menu file. Once the file shows up in the search, you need to delete it. The file you are looking for is Excel.xlb. Close windows explorer, open excel, and it is fixed.
