One message box popup and said "This Object was created in Excel. This
application is not available to open this object. Make the application is
properly installed and that it has not been deleted, moved, or renamed"

I had tried to reinstall the full set of Office XP/upgrade to Office 2003,
both were patched with latest sps. But the message box still exist.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

This sounds a lot like the message you get when the Norton Anti-virus Office
Plug-in is active. If it's not that, then it's some similar software that's
interfering in the OLE server-client functionality.
