Excel 2008 - File Not Loaded Completely

External Since: Feb 15, 2008 Posts: 1

I just upgraded from 2004 to 2008 Office for Mac-Home & Student Edition. Now every time I open Excel it automatically opens about 3-5 files in the background and gives me an error-like message, "File Not Loaded Completely." I hit ok and the message goes away but all the files are still open. Once I close the files I can proceed as normal but this is annoying.

Any ideas on what is happening and how to make it stop. I tried re-installing but there wasn't any change.

Check that you haven't set a location in the "At startup, open all files
in:" input box.
