Default Need to change "open with" designation?

ps. These are flags that you're passing to the excel.exe program--not files to
be processed.

I tried your solution, but I get a message saying that excel/unregserver not
found. The same for regserver. I did a search for unregserver on my harddrive
and got no results.

I'd try letting excel change the association.

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.

when I try to open my excel spreadsheets, they open in Notepad and are
scrambled. I have tried to change associated program unseccessfully.
