- - Files wont open (https://www.excelbanter.com/excel-discussion-misc-queries/105045-files-won%E2%80%99t-open.html)

I have 2 excel xp files each 80mb. They take five or ten minutes to open
depending on the file (linked to other files, vba code, etc.). When I open
them in excel 07 they havent opened after an hour. Then when I try to open
them in excel xp they wont open and I have to restore the computer to before
I used excel 07.

Files won’t open

I think I'd only try opening copies of those files in the Beta version of
xl2007.

And maybe report the problem in the Beta newsgroup/community????
