I get the following message everytime I open Excel (2007):

"LOOKUP>XLAM is already open. Reopening will cause any changes you made to
be discarded. Do you want to reopen LOOKUP.XLAM?" (Yes or NO)

How do I avoid this error message in the future. Web searches (general and
on Microsoft.com) have not come up with any helpful suggestions.

Anybody else ever run into this problem...very annoying and nothing on MS
site to help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I also have this problem -- very same message. It started when I had Excel
open and had to do a power-off shutdown. Apparently this is a pretty common
problem for which Microsoft has no fix.

My next step will be to uninstall and reinstall Office.
