Default can't open excel workbook

Hi to everyyone...

anyone know how to open a corrupt excel file


I get a message that says ..."unable to open file"

even though it's there, all appeared to be ok even during a saving till i tried to open again...before I saved it I was working on macros, don't know if that has any relevance

many thanks in advance

I would have to say it does sound like Macro problem. If you have macros in
the workbook one of them could be corrupt You can allways try running the
macros from Tools, Macros, Run Macro.

Or go into Visual basic and run them there.

Hope that helps.
