Thanks for the reply but no, I dont work from a floppy.
I copy the file to the hard drive. It opens on one computer but not the
others. Same Excel version (2000).

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.
