Hello!
I am having a problem with a Windows 98 machine running office 2000. The issue is this...when I try to open a spreadsheet on this one computer it throws the following error: "...EXCEL caused an invalid page fault in
module EXCEL.EXE at 0187:3029a578"

The weird thing is that it opens on all other computers I have tried it on, and all other excel documents open on this problem machine.

I have tried removing and reinstalling Office 2000, and even tried laying on another copy of Windows 98 - to no avail. The problem still persists.

Has anyone experienced this before? Have any suggestions, I am currently researching the Microsoft site to find answers. Your help is greatly appreciated!

thanks!
Amber

It's possible the service release needs updating unless the other systems that have no problems are on the same release.

If not...see HTTP://

Have you tried doing a repair of the office installation. Goto add/remove programs, select office and then you should get the option to do a repair.

Other than that look at things like your printer drivers. Afaik excel adjusts the page to the printer, try re installating your printer driver. That can help.
