Never heard of that before, try posting this question to
microsoft.public.excel.setup, I'm sure someone that frequents that
group will be able to solve your problem faily easily

Good Luck!

I received a new laptop in August and just recently got to using excel...back
to work and all.....when I attempt to open excel I am being prompted to inset
office disk and can by-pass this prompt to get to a file (it takes three
"cancel"s to do so).

Why is this happening all of a sudden? I am thinking that somehow a path has
broken and if so how do I fix it, please ?
