| Hallo,

| This was all fine until yesterday when I updated my computer on the
| Microsoft Update site. When I want to open an excel file, it doesnt open
the
| file. It only opens the Excel Program with no worksheet open. Then I have
to
| open the file through excel ie. going to "File" then "Open" and then
select
| the file.
|
| Please help. I dont know why this is happening!!

| Thank you!
