Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I reproduce the same situation on two computers with Windows Vista and Office 2007.
Testing: Create a *.xls file in the shared folder. Open the *.xls file on PC1 with the share. When I try to open the same file on PC2,
Excel 2007 just hangs "downloading ...* *.xls".
I understand that you have asked the end user to save the *.xls files as *.xlsx files to temp work around it. It's a good work around at
present. I will report it to the related department to see if it is really a bug in Excel 2007/Windows Vista. When I get confirmed, I will
reply to you. Thanks for your efforts on this issue.
If anything is unclear or if you have any other concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Emily Lin,

| Hi Emily,
|
| I've been able to do some more work on this since I last posted. The problem
| occurs when they're sharing Excel spreadsheets (and only Excel spreadsheets)
| created in their earlier version of Excel. I've had them save all the
| spreadsheets they want to share as .docx and they tell me that the problem
| doesn't happen. It loks like it's some sort of bug in Excel 2007
| compatibility mode when sharing spreadsheets in the way I've detailed.
|
| It would be interesting to hear if MSFT have any further info on this. I've
| subscribed to TechNet managed newsgroups so I'm hoping they will pick this up.

| Hi,
|
| Does the issue only occur with Excel 2007? Please put other files such as *.docx, *.txt in the shared folder. Open it on the
computer
| with the share. And then on other computers, open the *.docx, *.txt files to test the issue. What is the result?
|
| Based on my testing on two computers with Windows Vista and Office 2007, such a situation cannot be reproduced. What is your
| specific settings on the computer, for example, did you change the TEMP folder location, did you do special setting in Excel2 007,
| others?
|
| You can Repair Office 2007 to see if it works. Also, check Excel safe mode.
| --------------------
| 1. Open the Excel file on the computer with share.
| 2. On another computer, click the Start menu type excel /safe in the search bar, press ENTER.
| 3. Click File Open to open the same Excel file on the shared folder. What is the result?
|
| If anything is unclear or if you have any other concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me.

| | I've just upgraded a small business from Win XP and Office 2000 to Vista and
| | Office 2007. They have three Vista machines (a Home Premium laptop and two
| | Vista Ultimate PCs) networked peer-to-peer with a shared folder on one of the
| | PCs containing various Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
| |
| | When the user on the PC with the shared folder has a spreadsheet open and
| | the user on the other PC tries to open it, Excel locks up and they get the
| | following Vista error:
| |
| | Description:
| | A problem caused this program to stop interacting with Windows.

| | The second user is trying to open the spreadsheet to view it, rather than
| | make any changes, and this used to work perfectly on their old machines.
| |
| |
| | For info, this works perfectly well the other way round, i.e. if the user on
| | the PC without the share opens a spreadsheet first and then the user on the
| | computer with the share opens the same spreadsheet there isn't a problem.
| |
| | Can anyone advise?
| |
| | I have also posted this problem in the Vista networking discussion group as
| | I'm unsure exactly where the problem lies.
