Hi steve,

Thank you for the replying and patience!

Based on my research, Excel 2002 will treats all XSL files as potentially
harmful, similar to macro code. So in High security Excel will not give you
the option of applying the transform to the document. It should still open
the XML file without the transform.

Excel 2003 can determine whether or not an XSL contains anything that is
potentially harmful. So even in High security if the XSL doesn't contain
script (or several other attributes that could be dangerous) Excel will
still give you the option of applying the transform.

From your description, you are using one "safe" stylesheet, therefore Excel
2003 will apply it no matter what security mode is set.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further questions. I am
standing by to be of assistance.

Does this answer your question? Thank you for using Microsoft NewsGroup!
