Have you copied the file from the floppy to your hard drive before trying to
open it? You should. You should never try to work with Excel files that are on
floppies.

Hello,
Sorry for the cross post.
I am receiving the following message:

""Excel.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.You will need
to restart the program
An error log is being created.""

when trying to open xls files that have been copied from another computer.
Both Excel versions are the same and the file works on the source machine. I
am copying it to and from a floppy which also works when opened on the
source machine.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
