Sometimes "roundtripping" it will work.

File|SaveAs
Choose "Web page (*.htm; *.html)

Then close that workbook and reopen the .htm(l) file and save it as normal
workbook.

Sometimes opening the file in OpenOffice and saving there will help:
http://www.openoffice.org, a 60-65 meg download or a CD

Sometimes opening in later versions and saving it there will help:

Sometimes copy|paste special|formulas to that new worksheet in the new workbook
would help.

But you may want to describe the corruption you're seeing--maybe it's just the
way excel works(???).

How do I un-corrupt an excel file?

I have tried removing some of the formatting, copy and pasted it into
another workbook to no avail.
