Default My Excel file won't open

I right clicked on the file --there was no option of SELECT. Is this feature
only in Word?

You may be able to open and repair this workbook. Try this:
* File - Open
* Go to the folder where the workbook is located.
* Right click on the file and choose SELECT.
* The Open button will have several choices, one is "OPEN AND REPAIR".

I've only done this with "corrupted" WORD docs so good luck.

I am making a catalog in Excel. It contains about 140,000KB, with photos.
It
has 12 tabs. Each time I opened it to work , it was getting more and more
'sluggish' and would take about 2 minutes to finish saving.
Now when I click on it or chose'open', it times out-- no hourglass- it
will
not open. I have Microsoft XP.
