Greetings Dave,

Until recently we routinely used sheet names of up to 44 characters without
difficulty.

QTP = Quick Test Pro (from Mercury Interactive), is automated test harness.

Thanks,

Charles R.

There is a limit of 31 characters per sheet name in excel.

It's been that way for as long as I can remember (xl95 at least).

I don't use openoffice or Quatro Pro, but I don't understand how excel can
interrupt Quatro Pro after you've launched that program, then done
file|open to
open your workbook.
