About a month ago I upgraded from Windows98 to Windows 2000, and now when I go to close Excel 2000 the "X" in the upper right corner is grayed out. I can select File/Close, and then I get a message saying "Run-Time Error '91'" and "Object variable or With block variable not set". I don't know anything about debugging, so I have just put up with it. If it matters, I am on a LAN that uses Novell Groupwise.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, click Exit on the File menu to quit the program.
To prevent this problem from occurring, remove the add-in that is installed by Groupwise. To remove the Groupwise add-in file (Gwxlus.xla in Groupwise 5.1 or gwxl97.xla in Groupwise 5.2) add-in, follow these steps:
On the Start menu, point to Programs, and then click Windows Explorer.
Open each of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Xlstart
C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\Xlstart
C:\Winnt\Profiles\User name\Application Data\Microsoft\Excel\Xlstart
where User name is your user name.
The folder specified in the Alternate startup file location box on the General tab of the Options dialog box.
And then click the Gwxl97.xla or Gwxlus.xla file as appropriate.
On the File menu, click Delete. Click Yes if you are prompted to move the file to the Recycle Bin.
Start Microsoft Excel.
On the View menu, point to Toolbars and click Customize.
On the Toolbars tab, click Worksheet Menu Bar and then click Reset.
Also reset the Standard toolbar by clicking Standard and then clicking Reset.
Click Close.
The Open, Close and Save dialog boxes and the system Close button of Microsoft Excel are no longer integrated with Novell Groupwise.
