MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / January 2006Help with File Menu
I just installed Office2003 in conjunction with WinXP Pro SP2. When Excel file (xls) is opened, "File" menu is missing. Please advise me how to recover File menu. Craig View|Toolbars|Customize|toolbars tab select worksheet menu bar and click Reset (It'll reset that whole toolbar, though.) > I just installed Office2003 in conjunction with WinXP Pro SP2. > When Excel file (xls) is opened, "File" menu is missing. > Please advise me how to recover File menu. > Craig  SignatureDave Peterson Thanks Dave. I tried twice but it did not work. The suggestion you gave me has to do with "Toolbars" not Menu. My Excel Sheet starts from Edit, View, Insert, and so on. The first menu should be "File". Thank you.

The .xlb file has all Toolbar customization in it. 1. Close Excel 2. Do a search for .xlb in Windows (Use: search hidden files and folders) 3. Rename or delete the .xlb file or files (In 2002 the name = Excel10.xlb) 4. Start Excel Deleting the file or renaming will do no harm on your system Excel will create a new one for you. (You lost your customization remember that) If you make your own toolbars or add buttons to the others this file is important (backup it so you can restore it) SignatureRegards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl > Thanks Dave. > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >>> Please advise me how to recover File menu. >>> Craig I hope Ron's suggestion fixed it for you, but File is one of those dropdown menus on the worksheet menu bar. File|Edit|View|Insert|Tools|.... Is that worksheet menu bar. > Thanks Dave. > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > > > Dave Peterson SignatureDave Peterson |
