Xcelsius displays Problem accessing excel: closing message

Hi expert,
I installed Xcelsius 2008 Engage. After that I tried to execute the program. A "Problem accessing excel: closing" message is displayed and after looking similar issues in SDN, and SAP notes... I tried following actions, as suggested::
Restart computer
To check that no MS Offices processes are being executed
No outlook is running
I uninstalled some Office 2007 extra packages
I installed Xcelsius SP1 Fix packs 1, 2 and 3.
After fix packs installation, the error message is still appearing, but now a new message also appears: "Failed to set localized string".
Does anyone have an idea about what I have to do to solve this annoying problem? I can not use Xcelsius!
There is one thing I have to check: that Excel doesn't have installed add-ins. Does anyone know if SAP Business Explorer tools, in special Excel Analyzer, can be considered as an Excel add-in? can this SAP product interfere in Xcelsius excecution, causing the message I get?
Thank you very much!

Bobby,
I have none of your mentioned software, except .xla files.
These are .xla files, from SAP GUI I have installed and from SAP Business Explorer. Can theses .xla files interfere in Xcelsius? Should I uninstall this software which is by now my Daily working tools?
BExAnalyzer.xla
CRMSalesPlanning.xla
EXPTOOWS.XLA
HTML.XLAM
MAPDataLayer.xla
MAPDialogLayer.xla
sapbex.xla
sapbex0.xla
sapbexc.xla
sapbexc350.xla
sapbexc700.xla
sapbexp.xla
sapbexs.xla
sap_rpw.xla
SEM_Installation_Check.xla
I will also try to install this Xcelsius in a Virtual Machine...
Thank you very much

  • Problem accessing Excel

    Hello!
    I'm doing my first steps into Xcelsius world.
    But every time I try to import my excel sheets ... I get this error message "Problem accessing Excel : Exiting"  and xcelsius closes.
    I really don't understand what is wrong. I've read many other messages but I haven't found a solution yet.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Following information might be helpful for resolving the issue.
    This problem has to do with a conflict with the automation libraries that Xcelsius uses to interact with MS Excel. All the re-installation attempts have failed because there is likely a 3rd party process or application that is affecting these automation libraries and preventing Xcelsius from communicating with Excel.
    This is usually the result of having another application installed that also interacts with Excel. This can also come from a 3rd party Office add-in that integrates with Excel.
    Check your Excel add-ins and see if anything is listed there. If you see something listed that does not seem to be a default Excel add-in. Youu2019ll need to uninstall it to prevent it from conflicting with Xcelsius. Let me know your results.

    Thank you.

    Hi David.
    1.) Go to the Task Manager and kill the excel process.
    2.) Restart Xcelsius.
    Xcelsius integrates and excel instance. Sometimes the excel instance is not closed properly, so you have to kill the instance manually.

  • 2008 Installed on Vista "Problem accessing Excel: Exitiing"

    I installed Xcelsius 2008 onto my new laptop that has Vista on it and it worked fine until I loaded the SP1 Hot Fix 1.
    Now when I open the application I get an error stating "Problem accessing Excel: Exitiing"  then the app just closes.
    Please help.
    Thank you

    The UAC setting was the main issue I believe.  I was getting many other issues also so I uninstalled and reinstalled everything very methodically with great results.
    Thanks to all who posted.

  • "Problem accessing excel" Error

    Hi All,
    I have just downloaded the trial version for Xcelsius Engage 2008. Whenver I try to launch it, I am getting an error "Problem accessing excel: exiting". I am using windows XP and excel 2007. I have checked in the windows task manager and there is no rogue Excel.exe task running in the background. Can someone please let me know what I need to do. I am very new to BO, so I have no idea on how it works.
    Thanks very much,
    Pratik

    Unfortunately we had this issue too and had to reinstall both Xcelsius Engage 2008 and Microsoft Excel 2007.
    We suspected something to do with the registry keys, but it works fine now.
    Sorry for the all the work but I hope it works.

  • Accessing excel documents fom KM

    Hi all
    I have a problem accessing excel documents in Hebrew from the KM.
    If the document's name length is more then 23 characters (in Hebrew),I get a "This page cannot be displayed" error.
    It happens only if I work with Excel 2002 (XP) version.
    Excel 2003 works fine,but I cannot upgrade my ~1500 workstations now.
    Last year we had almost the same problem - like this:
    <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?forumID=42&threadID=45589&messageID=459760#459760">https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?forumID=42&threadID=45589&messageID=459760#459760</a>
    The problem was solved by Microsoft fix :
    KB Article Number(s): 918692
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Alexander

    Hi Alexander,
    you could use the GUID instead of the displayname, it is unique, fixed in length and does not depend on language settings.
    I guess you will have to write a custom property handler for that, but maybe this can be done through configuration only ...
    That could be a workaround for your problem ...

  • Display problems in Mail messages with image attachment

    Issue: Seeing intermittent display problems in Mail messages with image attachments
    Annoyance level: minor, but Apple techs need to pass it along
    Details: Regardless of mail client sending to iPhone (Outlook, OWA, Yahoo, Gmail) there are intermittent and what appear to be random occurrances of the pic being half rendered and/or the pic never loading (followed by message saying it can't be retrieved from server). In some instances the picture then appears fully rendered without a problem. Note: Image sizes varied from 14KB to 450KB

    Hi,
    I'm not familiar with C#, but if possible try the following:
    1. Removing all thead and tbody tags from the body of the message.
    2. Changing all inline CSS to embedded CSS.
    I've seen a user said the message stopped showing up after making the changes.
    If the issue persists, please note, since Outlook 2007, Outlook opens the HTML Email and converts it to Microsoft Word format before displaying it to the user. What happens during this process is that many CSS attributes and HTML support is completely removed.
    Some of the most notable absences are background-image, and padding and margin support. Hardly can we do much about this, so the message "If there are problems with how this email is displayed, click here to view it in a web browser" is actually
    a good workaround when we face this problem.

  • Problem accessing Instant Messaging

    hi,
    I have been trying to access the Instant messaging module with no success. Jabber server is setup successfully and the connectivity to the server is also fine. I have copied Jabberbeans.jar version 0.9.0-pre4 to <Oracle Home>/wireless/lib but the error shown on accessing it is: 'The required jabber jar file is not present on the server.'
    PLEASE HELP !!
    Regards
    Shiv

    Hi.
    I was able to get the IM application running and to log on but there is not much action.
    Putting the jabberbeans.jar in the asroot/wireless/lib directory will make the IM application work. Don't forget to restart your wireless server.
    Starting the IM application you will be asked to log on. To do so I've used my MSN messenger password. I can create a group and set the status but how can I be sure that I am connected to the MSN messenger service?
    So...I've applied the following settings:
    REPLACE_URL
    FORM_METHOD
    INPUT_ENCODING
    Determines whether the service uses an HTTP proxy to access the Jabber Server.
    The host name of the HTTP proxy, if any, used to connect to the Jabber Server.
    The port number of the HTTP proxy, if any, used to connect to the Jabber Server.
    The host name of the machine on which the Jabber Server is configured.
    - jabber.org.uk
    The name of the user directory service configured on the Jabber Server accessed by the service.
    - username MSN (?)
    The initial group name to assign to users acquired through the Yahoo! transport, if any.
    - MSN (?)
    The name of the conference service configured on the Jabber Server accessed by the service, if any.
    -jabber.org.uk
    The refresh page timeout for some pages accessed by the service. This value is in milliseconds.
    -20000
    The maximum number of messages the service will display between you and another user.
    -10
    What are the right settings?
