Unable to open
Hi all,
I have a excel file that is refusing to open and save with macros enabled, all other of my files will open but this one will only open (not save) when macros are disabled, I'm using Windows XP Excel 2003 on a IBM computer. Any help would be greatly appreicated. JUason |

Jason,
Try to lower the security level to Medium or Low, if you are sure the file doesn't contain any virus. Tools/Options/Security/Macro Security Do this from a blank sheet, and open your file from this one. -- ~roar Jason Zischke skrev: Hi all, I have a excel file that is refusing to open and save with macros enabled, all other of my files will open but this one will only open (not save) when macros are disabled, I'm using Windows XP Excel 2003 on a IBM computer.

Hi Roar
Thanks for your responce, I gave that a go changing it from medium to low and it does the same as enabling macros it begins to open then shuts excel down.

Hi Jason,
It seems that the macro itself causes the closing. It may e.g. contain a "workbook_open"- command that is impossible to execute on your computer. Should you have stored another file in the same folder? I sometimes experience problems when different versions of Excel/Vb. You may save a worksheet to an earlier version (save as type), and try to open from there, or you may ask the creator to save the file in your version of Excel. I have no more suggestions, good luck! -- ~roar Jason Zischke skrev: Hi Roar Thanks for your responce, I gave that a go changing it from medium to low and it does the same as enabling macros it begins to open then shuts excel down.
