Excel file will not open with out opening excel.exe first
I don't think this has ever been caused by corruption.

Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer:
Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver
The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets some of the windows registry to
excel's factory defaults.

Sometimes this may caused by file corruption, and you can try some
Excel file recovery tools, such as Advanced Excel Repair to repair
your Excel file.
