Custom Toolbar causes General Protection Fault

[Todd Bardoni]

This an FYI.

I created a Custom Toolbar and next thing I know I can't open Excel outside of safe mode. Every time I'd try to open Excel my computer would completely freeze; CTRL/ALT/DELETE would not even reset my computer.

After doing some research, I found an article saying that often times a General Protection Fault is caused by a Custom Toolbar.

To fix it, I simply renamed Excel.xlb and everything was fine after that.

Has anyone else run across this and can it be avoided?

Try it again (You know the fix now )... it doesn't happen THAT often...

Thanks, Juan. It seems to be working fine. I'm glad to hear that it doesn't happen that often, although, I wish it wouldn't happen at all. :D
