Ben, I've found the solution:

We've been looking at the wrong "workspace".

I have look all over the web with no luck in finding out how this can be done
without having to use SharePoint 2007. JLatham, were you able to communicate
with anyone on why this is doing this an possibly how it could be fixed?

I can easily download SharePoint 2007 180 day trial, but there should be no
need to have to have that to use the workspace feature.

Thanks,
Ben

Obviously Excel 2007 - from the problem description and mention of .xlsx files.

I've encountered the same thing, as have others. It appears that it wants
to save the workspace to a SharePoint server. I haven't found the cure for
it to get it to save as a workspace like previous versions. Maybe someone
smarter than me will come along and enlighten us both. But I wanted you to
know that you're not alone on this one.

I am trying to save four Excel workbooks as a Workspace. When I press the
Save button I get an error message that says "This extension cannot be used
with the selected file type. Change the file extension in the File text name
box or select a different file type by changing the Save as type.

The only option in Save As is Workspaces.


All four workbooks are saved as .xlsx files. Have I saved the workbooks in
the wrong format to use to create a workspace?

Thanks for any help.
