    error "the file could not been found" every time i open Excel

    Hi,

    Every time i open Excel i get an error message: "XXXXX.xlam has not been found. Is the file relocated or deleted or has the name been changed?" If i click the "OK" button the message goes away. I often work with VBA in Excel. Since i deleted some VBA projects i get this message every time i open Excel.
    How can i solve this problem?

    Do you have any add-ins? Have you perhaps accidentally deleted a module that belongs to one? Try disabling any add-ins you have one by one to see if that's it.
