    hi,
    Try starting in Safe mode, unchecking all installed add-ins in the Tools-addins menu, then close and restart Excel normally and see if you still get the error. If so, check both your XLSTART directories and move any files out of them temporarily.

    This error message is encountered during the Outlook check for consistency problems. The application attempts to fix the issue or most probably separates it with problematic add-ins and extensions turned off.If you choose to start Outlook in safe mode, then all the tricky add-ins or extensions get disabled. The problem could also be some corrupted resource, registry or template which can corrupt the PST in the harshest instances. Refusing to safe mode start should be made in cases when you are dead sure that no unexpected shutdown was there ever as then Outlook will not disable anything.

    hi,
    I had the same problem. The offending file is part of the Efax Messenger software. I removed the Efax software via 'Add & Remove Programs' and Excel now runs without a hitch.
