Default Error message

I don't use xl2007 much, but this site:

http://technet2.microsoft.com/Office....mspx?mfr=true

says that xlsx is a file with no macros.

So that macros are gone doesn't seem like a surprise.

the file you are trying to open, "Personal.xls", is in a different format
than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted
and is form a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the
file now?? // will come up everytime new excel file is opened or xlsx file
type is open. recently reinstalled Office 2007 - it didn't fixed this issue -
any sugestions?
