File cannot be accessed
I try to open a file I've been using everyday for 3 months and suddenly I get
a message that states "'File.xls' cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or, the server the document is stored on may not be responding." Now the file is not read only since I can look at the properties and the memory stick that the file is on is responding because all of the other files on it are able to be opened without a problem. I also can open the file in WordPad but it opens with some text but mostly odd characters. Any suggestions on recovering the data and opening the file? Thanks |

Safer not to use a memory stick, but to copy the file to hard disk. -- David Biddulph |

Thanks, but that doesn't help me since the file is on a memory stick. I have
copied to the hard drive but it still doesn't open in excel. KMc |
