When I try to do a save as with file open I get:

"idmxl8.xla could not be found. Check the spelling of the
file name and verify thatthe file location is correct."

Any idea of a work around?
 
All,

I am dealing with this same problem on a user's newly built PC. Office
has been repaired\reinstalled without luck. All of the "Dave Peterson
recommendations" have been followed (e.g., resetting the toolbars) --
nothing has worked.

The question I have for M$ is this -- WHERE DOES THIS FILE LIVE? This
file is not located on any PC I have scanned. I have also searched
multiple registries and found nothing meaningful.

IDMXL8.XLA is not a standard add-in and you cannot manipulate through
the Excel Add-in feature (despite what Excel experts might tell you).
Is it part of Excel? Perhaps compiled with the app?

We know it controls the Save features in the application, but SO WHAT!
Knowing this changes nothing if we cannot find any KB documentation on
the problem. The closest I have found pertains to a Novell Groupwise
issue (260199) -- it simply repeats the same fixes provided by Dave
Peterson. (Good try Dave -- keep it up).

Come on M$ -- where is the fix for this long-standing problem?? Step
up to the plate and document this add-in\macro in greater detail or
PROVIDE A FIX. There are enough google posts on this subject to choke
a wookie.

ggrrrrr,
