  • 2. MS Office Home and Student On a Business Machine
    Not for Commercial or Business use! I found this interesting, so I opened a question on this issue. Once again, I just got off the phone with Drew at Microsoft. 2 separate times today Microsoft admitted, it was an ambiguous statement, and left a gray area, but not to confuse, Commercial Use. Not for business! He went on to explain the implied purpose; I may not produce fliers, posters, ads for sale, or allow anyone to "pay" to use the Product, That being MS Office Home and Student.. That would be commercial use or use for business! Microsoft went on to say, that they are not adddressing this issue, because it is not a problem. He quoted "As long as you are not making money", by making commercial sellable products, the use of Home and Student was absolutely fine in an Office enviroment. Are they any comments to the symantics of the use of the words Commercial and Business in the EULA. Because to me, it leaves a very gray area...

would be gladly recieved.

If the .exe won't run you will have to down-load it again.
Make sure you clear the Ie cache first.

1.C:\Document.......\OfficeSTD.exe is not a valid Win32 application

I d/l the trial version and when I double-clicked the file in "My Documents" 
to activate it I got this message C:\Documents and Settings\"my name"\My 
Documents\OfficeSTD.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I'm kinda lost 
because I thought it was supposed to be as simple as point and click. Any 
help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a million,

3.EXCEL.EXE is not a valid win32 application

Sometimes when I try to open excel directly, or by double-clicking an excel 
file, I get the error message "EXCEL.EXE is not a valid win32 application". 
The first time it happened, I tried repairing office - and that seemed to 
work - but the last time, I shut down and restarted the comp and excel 
started to work again. Excel seems to be the only app that does this. I use 
it quite a bit, and it's giving me flashbacks to windows 95's multiple 
reboots per day to keep things working ;)

4.Microsoft Office\Office\EXCEL.EXE is not a valid Win32 application

Lately, In trying to open an excel file, or excel program, 
I get the referenced notein a pop-up box.  
Nothing eles opens.
Using Office 2000Pro and Win98.  All other files seem ok.  
Also, Microsoft automatic updater won't perform eaither.

Any clues?


5.Excel.exe is not a valid Win32 Application.

My system:  Vista Business 32bit with SP1, Office 2007 Professional with SP1.

For a while I was running Vista (without SP1) and using Office 2007 with 
SP1.  Rarely any issues.

Sometime after installing Vista SP1, I've been having odd issues with my 
Office installation, Excel especially.  I don't know if it's its SP1 related, 
or if it's just something went wrong with the Office install.

Here's the issue.  I leave my PC on 24/7 and simply lock it when I leave the 
office.  After several days, Excel will just stop working, completely.  When 
I try to launch excel I get the error "Excel.exe is not a valid Win32 
application".

I have tried reapplying SP1.  After reapplying the SP1 and rebooting, 
everything returned to normal.  So I thought.  A week or so later, same 
issue.  It turns out simply rebooting resolves the issue temporarily.

I thought my Excel exe was corrupted (i.e. some file wrote/deleted 
information from the binary file).  I verified modified dates with other 
excel exe's and everything is the same.  Nothing seems out of the ordinary.

I can't find any relevant errors in my event log.  I can't see anything out 
of the ordinary when using SysInternal's process monitor either.  It's like 
something in Vista thinks this EXE is a bad EXE and it won't let it launch 
until I reboot.

I have even noticed after several times of launching the exe, if I browsed 
to the installation directory, the actual icon for Excel was dimmed, as if it 
was like a hidden file or something.  WTH?  When I rebooted, it returned to 
the normal icon.  I have yet to see the icon dim again, even during times of 
issue.

I disabled my antivirus thinking it was the culprit to no avail.

What in the world could be happening?  When I use the process monitor, the 
exe never even gets executed (i.e. no events for excel.exe).

Please help!!!
