try opening excel in safe mode and then opening your file.

either hold the shift key down immediately after clicking on your excel file or
create a shortcut to excel.exe and then add a /s to the end of the command line
that launches excel and then see if your workbook will open.
for example, the default location for office 2003:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\EXCEL.EXE" /s
