Excel error
Excel is starting but I'm getting a blank page instead of document selected, happening on all Excel documents I open

Does this happen when you open a workbook from within Excel, or only when you double-click a workbook in File Explorer?
If the latter:
- Select File > Options.
- Select Advanced.
- Scroll down to the General section.
- Make sure that the check box 'Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)' is clear (not ticked).

Thanks for your reply, I have the second issue you mentioned, I have checked your recommendations and the check box was unselected, according to Microsoft Help there is an issue that is causing this that they are working on,
Cheers
