Problem solved! For some reason the "Display Library" extension had become locked. By unlocking and then removing it temporarily, Classic now loads happily in my admin account.

I think I must have become spoilt by OS X where the challenge of trapping extension conflicts et al has been taken away (now, what do I do if my kernel panics?).

Just over a month ago Dave gave me some hints on how to resolve my problem getting at Classic from my administrator's account.

Despite trashing every preference file I could find that may have had an effect there was no improvement in the situation.

I will probably continue to fiddle with it, but as I can access Office 98 from my kids' account I'll do that for now and, in time, buy Office X or something to reduce my reliance on Classic (work has finally moved onto Office XP after all).

Anyway, belated thanks for the advice.
