Default XL 2007 *.xlsx could not be found. Check ... Sequential ERROR screens

XL 2007

Every time I attempt to open a .XLS file from Win XP Pro Explorer, I get the following sequences of
file open error screens. Notice how Excel attempts to open each grouping of letters (separated by a
space) in the file name. Also note that Excel is attempting to locate a .xlsx file when the actual
file is an .xls file.


Actual file name: XYZ Utilities MAR 2007 CMI Download.xls

"XYZ.xlsx" could not be found. Check the spelling of the
file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
If you are trying to open the file from your most
recently used files, make sure that the file has not
been renamed, moved, or deleted.

Next screen: "Utilities.xlsx" could not be found. Check......

Next screen: "MAR.xlsx" could not be found. Check......

Next screen: "2007.xlsx" could not be found. Check......

Next screen: "CMI.xlsx" could not be found. Check......

Next screen: "Download.xlsx" could not be found. Check......

Does anyone have/know a fix for this error/bug?
