As to the cause I am not so sure as I cannot pinpoint it exactly from MSKB. It seems install-remove-reinstall may not be welcome by MS! Some suspect swap file can cause trouble to it.

But as the resolution, I have seen report on its being sucessfully resolved running Office200 SP2. The SP2 is out in 2000.11 and it is big 8+MB. Download it from

http://search.officeupdate.microsoft.com/downloadCatalog/default.asp?product=Excel

One precaution is in order. The patch will also implement some security features in Outlook which may prevent you from reading some e-mail attachments. More info on the SP2 is at

http://office.microsoft.com/2000/downloaddetails/SP2upd.htm

If you like to experiment a bit, before using SP2 solution, try to verify in your computer by setting to manage virtual memory, the swap file, by your own whereby setting the max size to at least 225MB and min at least 150 to see if you can open excel2K. If not, just switch back to your original setting. It won't harm anything.

Care to feedback results?
