TFS 2008: cannot export to Excel!

[susan]

Hi all,

I've got a problem with TFS 2008. I cannot export to excel and it show
the messages as below:

TF80070: Team Foundation encountered an erro while performing the
operation. It is recommended that you save your work and restart the
application.

TF84038: There was a problem shutting down the Microsoft Excel Team
Foundation Add In. Re-installing the Team Foundation Client may be
required.

Then, I try to re-install Microsoft Excel and TFS. But it seems the
same problem occured.

I really need your help please advise and give me some your ideas and
solutions.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the "Team" tab of the excel, click new list. connect to your team foundation server. run any query you want and close the excel

now go back to your team explorer in the TFS and export any query to excel you want, it will work fine

what happens in the back ground is, it give a kick to excel on the back side that makes it work
