Upgrading from Excel 97 to Excel 2000

Recently, I upgraded from excel 97 to excel 2000.
Since then, all the Labview vi's I've used to work with excel are no more executable (broken wire) on my computer.
However when I opened these vi's on another computer (also with excel 2000) there are no errors.

How can I make these vi's work on my computer?
Are there something missing during excel 2000 installation? How can I check that?


I'm using Labview 5.1 under Windows NT


Thanks

If you are referring to the "Write table to XL.vi" try doing the following:

1) Go into the block diagram and open up the vi "Open Excel and make visible.vi"
2) Right mouse click on Automation refnum (The label is titled exel._application)
3) Check to see that under the area "Select ActiveX class" that excel is
selected.
If not you will have to browse through your directories and locate
excel8.olb for
excel97 (I don't know what it is for excel 2000).
4) After that, go to the property and invoke nodes and reconnect the wires.
