All,

After my PC crashed, our backoffice installed BO 5.1 and 4.1 again on my PC. Before this ungodly incident I was able to run business query (for 4.1) without any problems.
After the new installation (with bq for 5.1)however, I'm experiencing problems with running bq.
Every time excell is started, an error message appears (file is not in recognizable format) after ok-ing this, the file Bqapi.xll (add in file for bq) is opened in excell, causing a load of crap to be displayed in an excel sheet.
When i try to 'add' the add in,this can be done and bq works fine. After closing excel and opening it again the problem repeats itself.
Our Helpdesk and Backoffice don't know what causes this problem, maybe some of you folks can give your 2 cents.

All answers that will lead to the resolution of this problem will be appreciated (other suggestions may also be appreciated), Thanks

Harry
