I had this problem several months ago with Excel and MSWord.  I could find
no reasonable explination for it.  The final solution was to get out
my backup copy of MSWord and copy it to the hard disk again.  This worked!
The only thing I could figure is that the copy I had on hard disk must
have been corrupted even though I could open documents from within Word.
The same fix worked for Excel.  I haven't had any problems since.

Hope it works for you.  Let me know if I can give you anymore info.
