Excel 2007 files are actually ZIP files. Have at look at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/he...069351033.aspx
I once downloaded an XL2007 file from a website and it was saved as
filename.ZIP. I renamed filename.XLSX and it opened with no problem in Excel
2007
best wishes

I'm an instructor teaching Office 2007 for the first time and using a
distance learning system called WebCt VISTA. I recently gave a test to my
students that had them uploading a completed Excel 2007 file to WebCT.
When I
decided to download the file it came downloaded as a "zipped" file with
the
following folders: _rels, docProps, xl, and several seperate files. Is
Excel
2007 converting the files could it be our distance learning program doing
this. I'd sure appreciate anyone's help.
