windows 2000 pro, office 2003.
End user has excel files stored deep inside my docs folder.
If he tries to open it via excel file open, The folder does not show up.
only the excel files at that level show, no folders.
If he opens it by browsing through my docs or my computer not inside excel,,
no problems at all?
Is there a depth limit on how deep a path through excel can look? 10 levels
deep?
any help would be appreciated, TIA
