Well, it sounds like the Org Chart application cannot start. But if all 5
charts were created using Org Chart, but 3 of the 5 can be opened, then
that's not the issue.
I don't know. I suppose you could try reregistering Org Chart. Steve already
posted a link to instructions for that earlier in this thread:
Can't edit Org Chart, Graph, Excel (error msg: "server application, source
file,
or item can't be found")
